| Long Description | Since 1935, Heaven Hill Distillery ® has been dedicated to crafting the highest quality Kentucky Whiskeys. This led us to start at the very beginning - the seed. Each year, our Master Distiller partners with fellow family-owned seed company Beck's Hybrids to hand-select a unique corn seed varietal that best grows in Kentucky.
Beck's 6225 was the corn seed varietal chosen for our 2nd edition to grow well in the soils of Central Kentucky. The corn and wheat were grown by family-owned Peterson Farms on one of two sites in Nelson County, Kentucky.
The 2nd Edition of the Heaven Hill Grain to Glass Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey features a mashbill with higher Rye content than our traditional Rye mashbill. The distillate entered the barrel at 107 proof, has been aged over six years at our Cox's Creek rickhouse site, non-chill filtered and bottled at barrel proof, 105.2 proof. |
