Keeper's Select

KEEPER'S SELECT · AN ONGOING RECORD

The Chronicle

A high-rye, double-oaked single barrel with a life before the Keeper and a story still being written under his watch.

THE CHOICE

The barrel that said, “Pick me.”

After sampling many barrels — 99% corn, wheat, rye, and double-oaked wheat among them — one double-oaked high rye demanded attention. Spice, caramel, oak and vanilla arrived with complexity and force. At cask strength, it was already full of character and ready to be enjoyed. It became the first barrel chosen by the Keeper.
