Each year, Pinhook releases a new vintage of bourbons and ryes. Every expression is the best representation of our barrels at that moment in time, and dedicated to a promising young thoroughbred. Through a combination of careful barrel selection, blending in small batches, and meticulous proofing, each Pinhook vintage has a personality as unique as the horse on the label.
Our 2021 High Proof Rye is paired with Hard Rye Guy, son of Hard Spun and La Pomme D'Amour, by Flower Alley.
Hard Rye Guy is a three-year-old colt, who is in the second year of his racing career, with 14 starts to date and total earnings of nearly $100k. Our partner, Jamie Hill, at Bourbon Lane Stables is looking forward to an exciting summer 2021 campaign for Hard Rye Guy.
Showcasing exceptional balance at 122 proof, Pinhook 2021 High Proof Rye brims with warm and nutty notes of chocolate, black pepper and cedar wood. Black cherry and sorghum notes permeate the palate, finishing with spiced notes of cinnamon and black licorice.
