60% rye, 20% corn, 20% malted barley — 121.9 proof, aged 6 years, limited to 2,000 bottles. The fourth entry in the Collaboration Series was produced with Neal Bodenheimer — founder of Cure in New Orleans, co-author of Cure: New Orleans Drinks and How to Mix 'Em, and James Beard Award winner — blended live at Tales of the Cocktail 2025 alongside Pinhook co-founder and master blender Sean Josephs. The nose is layered and evocative: sweetgrass, butterscotch, tobacco, nutmeg. The palate delivers brûléed sugar, baked pear, spearmint, and clove. At 121.9 proof this is the most assertive expression in the lineup and the one with the best story behind it — $5 from every bottle goes directly to the Tales of the Cocktail Foundation. A proper collector's bottle that also drinks.
