Enjoy the taste of caramel, vanilla, mint, and floral, with a forward lingering spice in this straight rye whiskey that honors the history of Black jockeys Isaac Murphy, Alonzo Clayton, Oliver Lewis, and Soup Perkins. Black jockeys once dominated the sport of horse-racing, from the first Kentucky Derby in 1875 through 1902, winning 16 of the first 28 Derby races.
From 1921-2000, there were no Black riders in the Kentucky Derby. This bold spirit celebrates their indomitable spirit.

I tried Old Hillside on a whim after a co-worker mentioned they were a local business (Raleigh Durham region). This 5 year rye is amazing. It offers mint, a slight butteriness, and full-on grassy rye spice. And it’s full of flavor. Nothing subtle here. I think it’s an outstanding traditional rye. Can’t wait to buy more and try some other Old Hillside bottles
