James E. Pepper Barrel Proof Rye — Spring 2026 Limited Release | 100% Rye, 6.3–8 Years Aged
Distilled & hand-bottled at the historic James E. Pepper Distillery, DSP-KY-5, Lexington, KY
A genuine piece of American whiskey history, bottled at full barrel strength. The James E. Pepper Barrel Proof Rye — Spring 2026 Limited Release is a very small blend of 100% rye barrels, hand-selected and aged between 6.3 and 8 years in fine oak. No dilution, no shortcuts — just uncut, uncompromising Kentucky rye whiskey from one of the oldest names in the business.
A Rye Lover's Rye
This isn't a high-corn rye dressed up for the masses. It's a 100% rye mash bill — bold, spicy, and structured — pulled from a small selection of premium barrels at the legendary DSP-KY-5 distillery in Lexington. Bottled at 115.6 proof (57.8% ABV), this Spring 2026 release delivers the full character of the barrel: peppery rye spice, deep oak, and the kind of warming finish that earns rye its devoted following.
Aged 6.3 to 8 years, the whiskey has the structure of a younger rye with the rounded depth of a mature one — a sweet spot rye drinkers chase.
