"Caramel, spice and baked bread with a curious bit of dill in the aroma, leading to classic caramel and sweet vanilla flavors plus fresh herbs on the long and pleasing finish."

Chairman's Trophy, 96 Points, Great Value - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2023
"This is a show-stopper of a Bourbon with a complex bouquet of worn leather, buttered cornbread, toasted vanilla bean, white cherries. The palate shows dense layers of dried citrus fruit, cream pastries, and dried mint. Excellent sipping whiskey with a long, complex finish."
95 Points - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2023
" An exceptionally well-made example, delivering an intertwined aromatic display of rich caramel, dark honey and luxurious chocolate. Flavours of mahogany, ripe dark fruit and caramelised banana appear on the palate, framed beautifully by classy toasty oak and clove spice. Outstanding."
Gold - World Whiskies Awards 2022
“Nose: There is a peppery pinch to the spicy nose, which fits perfectly with the dark brooding nature of the beast. The slightly singed toast acts as a perfect counter to the mint and orange rind. Really complex and tempting. Taste: Wow! Loads of everything. As you might expect from the nose. A deep, satin-smooth oak and burnt sugar backdrop allows the malt and rye to have a big say. Lots of vanilla, too. Finish: Here, as it dries, the corn comes into dominance. Some vanilla toffee, too. Comments: Magnificent stuff from Heaven Hill that really is worth hunting for.” - Jim Murray

Notes from the Maker:
Rittenhouse is produced in the tradition of the classic rye whiskeys that were once the preeminent American whiskey style, kept alive through the lean years by Heaven Hill and two other distilleries.
An excellent rye whiskey at a competitive price, Rittenhouse Bottled-In-Bond won the coveted “The World’s Best North American Whiskey” in Whisky Magazine’s World Whiskey Awards. The venerable American Whiskey was also named “Top North American Whiskey” at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

"Pepper, cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate, coffee, honeycomb, spice and oak characteristics on the nose and palate with a great mouthfeel and sweetness ending in a spicy finish."
93 Points, Great Value - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2023
"This bottled-in-bond rye displays complex aromas of clover honey, fresh maple, and carraway. Seductive on the palate, it coats the mid and upper palates with bready notes that give way to orchard fruit and baking spices that linger on for a long finish."
Platinum - Ascot Awards 2022
“Well balanced with a buttery mouthfeel and flavors of toffee, black pepper, and a nice dose of fruit.”
Double Gold - SIP Awards 2021
95 Points, Best Buy - Wine Enthusiast
"A versatile must-have for mixing cocktails, look for pleasing vanilla, maple and a hint of dried cherry. The finish is long and drying, with plenty of baking spice notes."
