Heaven Hill launches a new 19th edition of its Parker's Heritage Collection, delivering a straight American whiskey composed about mashbills. Each annual release brings its own unique twist in terms of mashbill, proof, and cask finishing. It brings together 15-year-old Kentucky straight wheated bourbon from Rickhouse A, an 11-year-old Kentucky straight corn whiskey aged across Rickhouses DD, GG, and BB, and a 12-year-old rye and malt whiskey matured in Rickhouse Y.
Only 160 barrels were used for this limited blend, with each whiskey aged individually before being carefully combined. Bottled at a cask strength of 122.5 proof and left non-chill filtered, this release captures the full intensity and character of each component in its purest form.
“With each release of Parker’s Heritage Collection, we honor Parker Beam’s legacy by pushing the boundaries of American Whiskey,” said master distiller Conor O’Driscoll. “This 19th Edition is a celebration of innovation and craftsmanship, bringing together three mashbills and age statements to create a complex, bold whiskey that truly stands out. We’re proud that this series not only showcases our team’s blending expertise, but also continues to support ALS research in Parker’s memory.”
