Learn MoreCaleb's Crossing Straight Bourbon & Rye Blend stands out with its daring fusion of 8-year Green River bourbon and a rare 12.5-year Ross & Squibb (MGP) rye, flipping conventions by letting the ultra-mature rye elevate the bourbon's creamy sweetness into a bold, barrel-proof masterpiece at 115 proof. Expect grilled peach and buttercream on the nose, brown sugar apple fritter and honeyed butterscotch on the palate, and a spicy orange-rye finish with cinnamon and pie crust that lingers luxuriously. Whiskey adventurers will crave it for its ambitious depth, full-bodied balance, and premium complexity that justifies every sip.
Caleb's Crossing Blend of Bourbon & Rye is a masterful fusion of straight bourbon from Kentucky (70% corn, 21% rye, 9% malted barley, aged 7-8 years) and high-rye whiskey from Indiana (95% rye, 5% malted barley, aged 12+ years), bottled at barrel strength around 114-115 proof. Non-chill filtered with no additives, each limited batch—such as BBR-1 (683 bottles) or BBR-2 (658 bottles)—delivers a copper-bronze whiskey distilled at Green River and MGP (Ross & Squibb). This innovative blend flips tradition by prioritizing mature rye over younger bourbon for exceptional depth.
Aromas evoke cocktail cherry, vanilla frosting, peach tea, tangerine peel, and fragrant sweet-spicy oak, with grilled peach, grapefruit, and cinnamon sugar in later batches.
Cherry-infused caramel syrup mingles with glazed apple, sugar cookie, honeysuckle, dried apricot, brown sugar, cream soda, and apple fritter for a rich, balanced profile.
Long and lingering with brown sugar, cream soda, boozy nectarine, sweet charred oak, prickly rye spice, orange, cinnamon, and light pie crust.
This whiskey stands out by boldly blending rare 12+ year Indiana rye—typically sipped solo—with Green River bourbon, creating a full-bodied sip greater than its parts. Founders Washington Lafayette and David Jennings craft limited releases that showcase unconventional maturity and complexity, earning praise for ambition and flavor elevation. At $125 SRP, its non-chill filtered purity and harmonious bourbon-rye synergy appeal to enthusiasts seeking uniqueness.
Savor neat or on the rocks to appreciate its layered intensity, or elevate cocktails where its spice and sweetness shine. Ideal for sipping at barrel proof, its versatility bridges bourbon richness and rye backbone without dilution. Pair with charred meats or desserts for an indulgent experience.
