New York Distilling Co. 10-Year-Old Straight Rye

New York Rye Rises

Lost Lantern hand-selected this cask from Brooklyn-based New York Distilling Co., one of the country’s first and finest urban distilleries and a champion of the rebirth of gin and rye whiskey in the Empire State.

This special release, made from 72% rye, 16% corn, and 12% malted barley, was aged for a full ten years in New York State, making it tied for our oldest rye whiskey ever and one of the oldest New York whiskies ever released. The nose has rich notes of lemon custard, fresh mint, lemon verbena, leather, and dense oak. The palate bursts with notes of rich dark chocolate, mint brownies, and cinnamon-frosted babka. Remarkably fresh, deep, and complex.

Longtime Lost Lantern fans may remember New York Distilling Co. from our very first two releases. Our first-ever cohort featured the distillery’s unique apple brandy-finished rye, and our second included a 4-year-old straight rye. This is our first release from them since 2021, and it is truly exciting to explore what their whiskey looks like at a much older age statement.
