The story behind it

The maker

Tom Bulleit founded the Bulleit Distilling Co. in 1987 in Louisville, Kentucky, reviving a high-rye family recipe dating back to his great-great-grandfather Augustus Bulleit from the 1830s. Today, the historic brand is celebrated globally for bringing high-rye whiskeys back to the forefront of American mixology.

How it is made

Bulleit Rye is aged in charred American white oak barrels to coax out deep vanilla and woody complexity. The production utilizes a legendary mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley, far exceeding the 51% legal requirement.
