Old Stubborn High Rye Bourbon 136.26 Proof
Old Stubborn High Rye Bourbon 136.26 Proof
Description
136.26 proof. High Rye. Cask Strength. Old Stubborn — an uncompromising high-rye Kentucky straight bourbon bottled at natural barrel proof, with a name that doubles as a philosophy: this is not a bourbon built for easy drinking but for the collector who wants character at full concentration.
The high rye mash bill distinguishes Old Stubborn from standard Kentucky bourbon profiles — more spice, less sweetness on the front, with the 136.26-proof cask strength magnifying every dimension of the grain character. At this proof, the rye spice that defines the mash bill is unmistakable and untempered by dilution.
136.26 proof places Old Stubborn in the same tier as A. Smith Bowman Cask Strength Batch #4 (139.7) and well above standard allocated bourbon proof levels — a serious high-proof expression for collectors who prioritize intensity over approachability.
