Templeton Rye 13 Year Old Hidden Stash Collection

Templeton Rye 13 Year Old Hidden Stash Collection is a limited-release American straight rye whiskey from Templeton, Iowa, produced as the inaugural expression in the Hidden Stash Collection. Made from a rye-forward mash and aged for 13 years in charred oak barrels through Iowa's seasonal extremes, this whiskey is bottled non-chill filtered to preserve texture and depth, with an alcohol by Volume (ABV) of 54% (108 Proof). The extended aging delivers a mature, well-integrated profile that balances classic rye spice with developed oak character, firmly positioning it as a premium, small-allocation release.

Designed for neat sipping and long contemplation, this release emphasizes patience and structure over novelty, showcasing how time and climate shape rye whiskey when left undisturbed. It is packaged as a collector-ready bottling but built first and foremost around drinkability and age-driven complexity rather than finish-driven influence.

Aroma: A bold hit of sweet, spicy rye, rounded out with a hint of candied orange zest.

Palate: Warm and full, with a layer of sweet chipotle spice that slowly gives way to bright citrus.

Finish: Long and satisfying. Honey up front, easing into rich caramel at the back.
