Duke Double Barrel Founder's Reserve Rye Whiskey is a tribute to the legendary American icon, John Wayne, whose passion for craft and adventure is woven into every bottle. This exceptional spirit is born from the heart of Kentucky, where generations of whiskey craftsmanship come alive. The whiskey undergoes an innovative double-barrel aging process, first resting in new American oak before being transferred to French oak barrels that have previously held renowned Napa Cabernet wines and aged Kentucky bourbon. This meticulous approach results in a rich and complex profile that reflects the dedication of its creators.
Each sip of Duke Double Barrel is a celebration of flavor, featuring a harmonious blend of caramel, vanilla, and oak, complemented by the signature spiciness of rye. The smooth texture invites you to indulge, while the aromas of toasted oak and warm spices create an inviting atmosphere. Whether you're gathered around a fire or enjoying a quiet moment, this whiskey offers an unforgettable experience, echoing the spirit of camaraderie and the legacy of John Wayne.
