Old Overholt is one of America’s oldest whiskey brands, with roots dating back to 1810. Known as the bartender’s rye, this Pennsylvania-born, Kentucky-made whiskey has been a staple in classic cocktails for generations. Aged for four years—longer than many entry-level ryes—it delivers a well-rounded balance of spice, sweetness, and subtle oak influence.
On the palate, expect a mix of baking spices, toasted grain, and a touch of vanilla, all carried by rye’s signature peppery edge. Unlike high-proof or ultra-aged ryes, Old Overholt 4 Year leans into approachability, making it as easy to sip neat as it is to mix into a Manhattan or Old Fashioned.
Reliable, versatile, and packed with history, this is a must-have rye for both whiskey lovers and cocktail enthusiasts. Enjoy it on the rocks, in a classic rye cocktail, or as an everyday sipper with plenty of character.
