Heaven’s Door has announced the release of 10-Year Tennessee Straight Bourbon, the first limited edition offering from the celebrity brand.
The 10-Year bourbon is distilled with a low rye mashbill, mellowed in Tennessee maple charcoal columns, and bottled at 100 proof.
While the brand is known to push the envelope of barrel finishing (their Straight Rye Whiskey is finished in French oak cigar barrels), this release didn’t need anything extra.
“We are passionate about challenging whiskey convention through unique barrel finishing, wood experimentation, and blending,” says Ryan Perry, Head of Whiskey Development at Heaven’s Door. “At 100 proof and with a low rye mash bill, this whiskey is perfectly balanced and rich in character. After spending ten long, hot summers in a Tennessee rickhouse, this bourbon was so perfect that we felt any tinkering would have been a disservice.”
