Process & Profile

Leopold Bros 9 Year Three Chamber Cask Strength Rye Whiskey is a historic expression crafted using the distillery’s signature Three Chamber Still—the same type used by Stitzel-Weller, Jack Daniel’s, and other renowned American whiskey producers over a century ago. Made from heritage grains and following pre-Prohibition methods, this rye was barreled at 50% ABV and aged for nine years, allowing the Denver climate to naturally elevate the proof to a concentrated cask strength. This release represents the culmination of careful barrel selection and patience, producing a bold, powerful rye with remarkable depth and character.
