About Fort Hamilton Double Barrel Rye Whiskey
Inspired by rye whiskeys from the revolutionary war era, Fort Hamilton Double Barrel Rye is a blend of straight ryes from New York and the American Heartland. Crafted from New York rye grain and malted barley, it’s aged in char #3 American oak barrels for at least 3 years. Bottled at 90 proof and non-chill filtered, this is a versatile, full and robust expression that’s perfect for slow sipping but will perform well at mixing as well.Grab Fort Hamilton Double Barrel Rye today!
About Fort Hamilton
Fort Hamilton Rye is a tribute to Alexander Hamilton’s Hearts of Oak militia’s raid on lower Manhattan in August 1775. Under fire from HMS Asia, they decided to repurpose the battery of British cannons, subsequently forming America’s first artillery company.About Rye
As American as the bald eagle, rye whiskey was first brewed in the American Northeast in the 1600s. Even George Washington distilled it after leaving the Oval Office, so there’s no way of denying its origin.
It’s distinguished from bourbon for its original and unique spicy notes.
By law, rye whiskey must be made from at least 51% rye grain, aged in new and charred oak barrels for at least two years, and bottled at no more than 62,5% ABV.
