Heaven Hill’s American Whiskeys Recognized Time and Again by Whisky Advocate
Each year, Whisky Advocate magazine releases its renowned and highly anticipated Top 20 list. These are the whiskeys deemed worthy of your attention.
We’re proud to say that in 2020, Heaven Hill Distillery earned two spots on the list—including the top prize. Larceny Barrel Proof Bourbon was named Whisky Advocate’s “Whisky of the Year.” Elijah Craig Straight Rye Whiskey was also named #7 in the lineup. And it’s not the first time we’ve had a good showing. Both of these products join previous winners Elijah Craig Barrel Proof, named the 2017 “Whisky of the Year,” and Heaven Hill Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon, which earned the #4 in 2019.
The list is chosen from a collection of the highest-rated whiskeys nominated by the Buying Guide reviewers, and ranked based on quality, value and availability. It includes great values that might otherwise be overlooked, whiskeys that are best-in-class for their style, and highly accomplished bottles.
For everyone at Heaven Hill Distillery, our latest win was especially exciting as it demonstrates Heaven Hill’s top ten recognition for four unique whiskey expressions made with three different mashbills since 2017: our traditional Bourbon mashbill made with rye, our wheated Bourbon and our Rye Whiskey mashbill. It’s an honor to be recognized for exceptional consistency across our diverse portfolio of American Whiskeys.
