Heaven’s Door Spirits is an award-winning American whiskey brand co-founded by legendary musician Bob Dylan. Recently, the company, which derives its name from the Dylan track 'Heaven's Door,' has announced the inaugural release of its 'Decade Series.'
The Decade Series is a limited collection of super-premium American whiskeys, all of which have been aged for a minimum of ten years. The first release for the collection is a high-rye 10-year-old straight bourbon whiskey. The new ultra-premium rye is bottled at 100 proof and is neither chill-filtered nor charcoal-mellowed. As a result, the expression delivers bold rye flavors with sweet notes of toffee and chocolate.
"We’ve been patiently waiting on our barrels of aged liquid to mature to the optimal flavor profile for many years, and we are thrilled to release them for our fans to enjoy. When we sourced these barrels from our industry partners years ago, the product was phenomenal, but we purposely let some of them sit for several additional years to get even better…" said Heaven's Door Master Blender Ryan Perry
