Heaven's Door Refuge Sherry Cask Straight Rye Whiskey (Bob Dylan)
In stock
Refuge reimagines what rye can be—bold by nature, elevated by finish.
Made with a 100% rye mash bill, Refuge is aged 6 to 8 years before finishing for six months in Oloroso sherry casks. This rare combination brings layered warmth and fruit-forward depth to rye’s signature backbone—adding soul without softening its spirit.
Refuge opens with vanilla, toasted grain, and sherry-soaked fig, building into roasted nuts, cinnamon, and oak.
A rye that doesn’t follow form—it rewrites it.
