Its Bourbon Vertical Series follows a single group of 1,350 high-rye barrels distilled at MGP, with a mash of 75% corn, 20.5% rye and 4.5% malted barley, releasing them year by year so you can taste how bourbon changes with age. Pinhook has no fixed flavour profile or proof, only an ethos to produce the best whiskey every vintage. Rather than standardising one proof across the vintage, Pinhook sets aside specific small batches, such as Batch #2654, to showcase the sweet spot of selected barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine years of patient warehouse aging have deepened the spirit, introducing rich oak that complements the sweet and spicy high-rye mash bill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA collector's release for anyone following the Vertical Series, it makes a fine gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat, then add a few drops of water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 years.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rich oak with sweet and spicy high-rye character.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBatch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Small batch #2654.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinhook\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Small Batch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExpression \/ Batch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vertical Series Batch #2654 Reserve, 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMash Bill:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75% corn, 20.5% rye, 4.5% malted barley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 115 proof (57.5% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Distilled at MGP, Indiana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or with a little water.
