Private Reserve Rye Whiskey – Fans of the reserve, red label, aged-rye will be sure to love our Private Reserve Rye.
Like our White Rye and Aged Rye, it’s made in a historically accurate 26-gallon custom still. It’s then aged in a previously used barrel for eight months and then transferred to a second used barrel for 12 months. The result is an extra level of smoothness usually found in a much more mature spirit.

Double barrel whiskey (or double cask whiskey) is a premium “top-shelf” class of rye whiskey in which each bottle comes from individual aged barrels, instead of coming from blending together the contents of various ingredients to provide uniformity of color and taste.
Even reserved rye whiskeys that are not blended, maybe combined from more than one batch, or even from aging more years to achieve the consistency of smooth or smoky flavor and taste.
The whiskey from each double-barrel small-batch rye whiskey is bottled separately, with each bottle bearing the small-batch barrel number and in most cases the dates for the beginning and end of the aging process.
Each barrel is believed to contribute unique characteristics to the finished of this highly reserved aged whiskey.
There has been some recent controversy over private reserve casks whether single cask whiskeys are indeed all from single casks.
Whiskeys sold by Iowa distilleries such as Iowa Legendary Rye and Red Label Reserved Rye as “double casks” have been revealed to the vatting of multiple barrels, which may have been of different kinds of American white oak barrels for the whiskey flavoring.
With the “double cask” designation referring only to the final cask for their “reserved rye whiskey” maturation. In the absence of specific regulation regarding this language, it is not clear to what extent this practice is prevalent in the industry as a whole.
Double barrels may further be at cask strength or non-chill-filtered to further avoid adulterating the taste of its cask.

Iowa Legendary Red Label Private Reserve takes a rye spirit’s to an unparalleled level by using our patented 1920s style stills. Then we place this rye spirit into an American white oak barrel that has been charred for a 2-year resting & aging process. This reserve red label rye is then transferred to a second charred American White Oak barrel and aged to perfection. This second barreling allows the rye spirit to mature an even deeper level of taste. Adding Fruit-heavy theme with hints of vanilla and caramel, creating a truly authentic prohibition-era rye spirit.
