Description
Experience a new chapter in American whiskey history with the Old Overholt 12 Year Old Cask Strength Straight Rye. Distilled in the spring of 2013 at the James B. Beam Distilling Co., this 2025 limited release showcases the profound depth that over a decade of maturation brings to the glass. As a classic “Kentucky-Style” rye, this expression balances the brand’s signature grain spice with a distinct sweetness derived from its high corn mash bill, offering a richness often missing from traditional high-rye varietals.The non-chill filtered nature of this spirit preserves its natural oils, delivering a full-bodied texture at a robust 117 proof. Upon pouring, you are greeted with inviting aromas of butterscotch, strawberry, and warm baking spices like cinnamon and clove. The palate offers a complex journey through layers of dark cherry, plum, and raspberry, all grounded by molasses and brown sugar. The experience concludes with an exceptionally long, warming finish where sophisticated notes of seasoned oak, charred barrel, and a snap of peanut brittle linger, inviting you to savor the craftsmanship in every drop.
