Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Straight Rye Whiskey is a small-batch, Bottled-in-Bond expression that pays homage to one of American whiskey’s founding pioneers. While modern rye has enjoyed a resurgence, this whiskey recalls the robust style first crafted by Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. over a century ago. Made with a high-rye mashbill and bottled at 100 proof, it encapsulates the bold spice and character of early American rye, offering a flavor profile that is both nostalgic and powerfully authentic.
Crafted under strict quality standards, this expression is a true tribute to the legacy of Colonel Taylor. It bridges traditional techniques with modern distillation, presenting a rye whiskey that is both richly complex and unapologetically bold.
