Inside each bottle of Directors' Reserve is a story. One that embodies the lore and legacy of the Pendleton Round-Up - an iconic symbol of rodeo heritage. Aged for twenty years, it's clear the wait was worth it from the very first sip. Pure, glacier-fed spring water from Oregon's Mt. Hood allows the unadorned, warm notes of oak, cinnamon and rye to shine through. A little water or an ice cube opens up orange spice, vanilla and caramel, followed by a mature and mellow finish. An exceptional whisky that deserves to be showcased, the bottle is wrapped in a leather sleeve with tooling crafted by third-generation saddle maker Randy Severe, whose family has made custom saddles for nearly 70 years.
