Pikesville Straight Rye Whiskey is a bold 110-proof straight rye whiskey crafted by Heaven Hill Distillery in Kentucky. Bottled at 55% ABV and aged a minimum of six years in new charred oak barrels, it delivers a rich and complex spirit with deep American rye character.

On the nose, expect dusty cocoa and oaky smoke, leading to a dry and spicy palate with honeyed rye, cloves, and a long finish of vanilla and baking spices. The high proof amplifies the rye grain's natural spice while maintaining a smooth, well-integrated structure that makes it equally compelling neat, on the rocks, or in classic rye cocktails like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned.

The Pikesville brand traces its roots to Maryland in the 1890s, where it was one of the most celebrated Maryland Rye expressions before Prohibition shuttered the entire regional industry. After Prohibition, it became the last surviving Maryland Rye label. Today, Heaven Hill Distillery honors that heritage by producing it in Kentucky using extra-aged barrels selected from prime warehouse locations, keeping this historic American whiskey tradition alive.
