Old Grand-Dad 16 Year Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a rare, deeply aged expression from one of America’s most historically significant bourbon labels. Known for its high-rye mash bill and bold personality, Old Grand-Dad takes on an entirely new level of depth and refinement after sixteen full years in oak—transforming its signature spice into something layered, mature, and contemplative.

This long-aged release showcases what time can do when paired with a high-rye recipe: oak-forward yet balanced, powerful yet polished. The extended aging draws out rich barrel character while allowing the rye spice to mellow into warm baking spices, dark sweetness, and seasoned wood. It’s a bourbon that speaks to seasoned drinkers—those who appreciate structure, history, and patience over flash.

Bottles like this don’t come around often. Whether you’re a collector, a fan of classic high-rye bourbons, or someone who values age-stated American whiskey, Old Grand-Dad 16 Year stands as a serious and rewarding pour.
