Locke + Co Aspen Aged Rye
This expression is the flagship from the Aspen distillery founded by Rick Talley and Owen Locke. It is made from a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley. It is aged for 2 years in new 30-gallon barrels from Minnesota's Barrel Mill, with mixed char levels ranging from 2 to 5.
The whiskey is then blended in tanks, then finished with charred discs of local Aspen wood for an additional 8 months. It is bottled at 90 proof. .

RyeUnlike bourbon, rye whiskey can be made anywhere in the world. But if made in the US, the mash bill recipe must be at least 51% rye and it must be aged in new, charred oak barrels with no age requirement. Elsewhere, the rye whiskey will be made keeping the country of origin's rules regarding the recipe and minimum aging.
