The Executioner Straight Rye Whiskey is a bold and unapologetic rye dense, spice-forward, and built for those who crave power in their glass. With a high-rye mashbill and assertive character, its a whiskey that commands attention whether sipped neat or elevated in a cocktail.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Distilled in the United States, The Executioner is produced with a high-rye mashbill (often around 95% rye or another aggressive proportion) to maximize peppery, herbal intensity. It is matured in new charred American oak barrels, aged sufficiently to build depth and oak integration, and bottled as a straight rye whiskey.
The whiskey is typically non-chill filtered and bottled at a robust proof to preserve its full spicy profile and flavor concentration.

Tasting Profile

Nose:
Intense rye spice, black peppercorn, cedar, and pine needle. Beneath the heat lie notes of raisin, dark cherry, and leather.

Palate:
Vigorous and concentrated rye-forward heat, dark baking spices (clove, nutmeg), a touch of molasses or brown sugar sweetness, and oak bark. Moderating notes of dark fruit and tobacco balance the intensity.

Finish:
Long, fiery, and persistent, with drying tannins, lingering pepper spice, and a slowly fading echo of caramel and leather.
