Lock Stock & Barrel 18-Year Straight Rye Whiskey is “one of the … most complex straight ryes available”, the Philadelphia-based company claims. The liquid has been double-distilled from a mash bill of 100% rye grain, before being matured in new charred American oak barrels.

The packaging features a matte black glass bottle and wooden cork closure.

Cooper Spirits also produces whiskey under the Hochstadter brand name. Last month, the company unveiled a limited edition six-year-old rye, called Hochstadter’s Slow & Low.
