Habits Bottle Shop
Old Elk Straight Rye Whiskey is a knock-out rye that Old Elk Distillery holds up as a benchmark for others in the category, representing an exceptional standard for their Colorado-based operation. Made with a high-rye mash bill, this whiskey emphasizes the bold, spicy character that rye whiskey fans seek out, while still maintaining a smooth, well-balanced drinking experience. Expect a nose of peppery rye spice, toasted grain, and light citrus, while the palate delivers a full-bodied combination of black pepper, caramel, and oak, finishing long and warmly spiced with a clean, satisfying grain character throughout.
This rye's bold, high-rye profile makes it a great choice for sipping neat or on the rocks, and it also performs beautifully in a classic Manhattan, Sazerac, or rye Old Fashioned. Pair it with smoked brisket, aged cheddar, or dark chocolate to match its assertive spice.
Old Elk has quickly built a strong reputation among Colorado craft distilleries for producing consistently excellent whiskey, and this straight rye is one of their standout releases. Shop Old Elk Straight Rye Whiskey online at Habits Bottle Shop and taste this benchmark Colorado rye.

Ways To Pour It
Neat
Served on its own in a rocks glass, letting the full character come through exactly as crafted.
On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
