About this bottle
Old Overholt is one of the oldest continuously produced whiskey brands in America, tracing back to a Pennsylvania distillery founded in 1810 and now made by Jim Beam (Beam Suntory) in Kentucky. This 4-year straight rye keeps the brand's historic identity as one of the pre-Prohibition survivors — it was one of the few whiskey brands legally sold for medicinal purposes during Prohibition. Expect a classic, moderately spicy rye profile with caramel, vanilla, and rye grain character, priced and positioned as an accessible, everyday rye rather than an expensive collector's bottle.
How to drink Old Overholt
Build a Manhattan or Sazerac with it — Old Overholt has been a bartender's rye for generations precisely because it holds up well in classic cocktails without costing a fortune.
