Whether by a stint in a finishing cask, distilled from a single grain, or an altered mash bill,

each of these whiskies is crafted to offer variety and character. Brewed in smaller batches than our Core offerings, these Specialty Whiskies are variations of our classic styles. These whiskies are intended to remain in our lineup indefinitely, but due to the nature of small batch distillation, they may occasionally sell out while the next batch matures.

More is always on its way!

The Cooper’s Rye 100% Canadian Oak

This 100% Canadian Rye whisky is made from 100% rye grain. Aged a minimum of 4 years in new Canadian white oak barrels made by Quinn Sleeman. The virgin white oak lends a gentle sweetness to the distinct spice of rye uninterrupted by other grains. 

48% alc./vol.

  • Charred wood with used leather and hints of stone fruit.

  • Tart cherries and blackberries open up to heavily charred white oak.

  • Poached pear and toasted almonds.

  • Medium-bodied, bright and smooth.

Sherry Finished Single Malt

This Sherry Finished Single Malt is the first single malt whisky from John Sleeman & Sons. Made by carefully following traditional Scotch distilling methods, this spirit was partially finished in Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez Sherry Casks. In this classic iteration of a barrel-finished Single Malt, the added fruity complexity of sherry barrels compliment the delicacy of the 100% malt spirit. 

46% alc./vol.

  • Aromas of pears, chocolate, and fresh leather.  

  • Sweet pears and oranges accompanied with honey and toffee

  • Pleasantly malty with sweet dates, plums, and lingering fresh nutmeg.

  • Light to medium-bodied and smooth.

High Rye Straight Whisky

This straight whisky lies on the drier side of a classic southern-style whisky thanks to the high volume of rye in its mash bill. Matured in white oak barrels, this High Rye Straight Whisky is spicy and warmly complex. In contrast to our sweet and mild Traditional Straight Whisky, the new High Rye Straight Whisky is a robust, peppery, southern-style whisky that packs a punch.

48% alc./vol.

  • New York Cheesecake, Campfire roasted s’more (chocolatey, marshmallowy)

  • Vanilla bean, tropical fruit

  • Cooked cedar planks, stewed plum, pine forest

  • Full-bodied, smooth and warm.
