Some of us are probably know that Heaven Hill Distilleries makes good and cheap rye whisky. Now they are moving up into a higher market. The 750-milliliter bottle of Rittenhouse Very Rare 21-Year-Old Single Barrel Straight Rye Whisky is a 100-proof whisky which cost around US$150 at retail outlets. The Bardstown company is shipping 32 barrels, or about 3,000 bottles. It’s a bold move since American whiskies traditionally linger on the low end of the price spectrum.
