Ezra Brooks Straight Rye Whiskey (70cl, 45%)

Ezra Brooks Straight Rye is an American rye whiskey in a 70cl bottle, bottled at 45%, or 90 US proof. The mashbill is 51% rye, 45% corn and 4% malted barley. The brand has a long link with Heaven Hill, which agreed to supply the whiskey when it sold Ezra Brooks to the David Sherman Corporation in the early 1990s. The brand is now owned by Luxco, whose Lux Row distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky, began distilling in January 2018. It is described as a sipping whiskey with enough strength to hold its own in a Manhattan or a Sazerac.
