Stanhope Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

Born in Scotland. Crafted in Kentucky.

Stanhope Kentucky Rye Whiskey brings together Scottish heritage and authentic Kentucky craftsmanship in a whiskey that celebrates the bold, spicy character rye lovers seek. Distilled and matured in Kentucky, it is crafted from a 95% rye mash bill, creating a spirit that is vibrant, complex and unmistakably rye-driven.

Matured in American oak barrels featuring an Alligator Char No. 4, Stanhope develops layers of caramel, vanilla and toasted oak that complement its naturally peppery spice. The result is a beautifully balanced whiskey that combines intensity with remarkable drinkability.

On the nose, expect aromas of cracked black pepper, baking spices, vanilla and toasted oak. The palate opens with vibrant rye spice and cinnamon before revealing notes of caramel, dark honey and dried fruit. The high rye content delivers a lively, mouth-watering character, while the oak maturation adds richness and depth. The finish is long, warming and satisfyingly spicy, with lingering notes of pepper, oak and sweet vanilla.

Whether enjoyed neat, over ice or in classic cocktails such as a Manhattan, Sazerac or Old Fashioned, Stanhope Rye offers a bold alternative to bourbon while remaining firmly rooted in Kentucky tradition.

For those who prefer their whiskey with a little more spice, a little more character and a lot more personality, Stanhope Kentucky Rye Whiskey delivers in every sip.
