Parker’s Heritage Collection Heavy Char Barrels Aged 8 Years

The Parker’s Heritage Collection is a series of rare, limited-edition American Whiskeys offered as a tribute to sixth-generation Master Distiller Parker Beam for his 50+ years of distilling experience. Throughout those years, Parker was involved in developing Heaven Hill’s premium Small Batch and Single Barrel Bourbons, as well as much of the whiskey that now bears his name in the Parker’s Heritage Collection.

The 2019 edition, the 13th of the series, is one of those whiskeys. It not only holds the honor of being the first ever Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey in the Parker’s Heritage Collection but is especially notable for the unique way in which it was aged: in heavy char barrels.
