Michter's US*1 Single Barrel Straight Rye Whiskey is made from a mash comprised primarily of fresh, plump rye grains. Once the grains are harvested, they are sheared so that during fermentation, the grains are saturated with more flavor. After the grains have been fermented, they are distilled through a copper-pot still before being matured in charred, American oak barrels. The barrels are allowed to rest in a heat-cycled warehouse, which forces the wood to expand and contract as the temperature rises and falls. This heat cycling causes the whiskey and wood to mingle with each other, and contributes notes of marmalade and light caramel to the rye. Once Willie Pratt — Michter's Master Distiller — determines that the rye has reached its peak flavor, each bottle is filled and sealed by hand.

Jim Beam Pre-Prohibition Rye is a bold, spicy, 90-proof Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey with a classic, bold flavor profile featuring notes of black pepper, vanilla, and oak, supported by a underlying sweetness. Described as having a warm, spicy kick and a slight bite, this whiskey is well-suited for use in classic and contemporary cocktails, offering an authentic pre-Prohibition style experience.
