His grandson, Raymond B. Hayden, named the whiskey in his honor — a tradition that lives on in every bottle.

Old Grand-Dad uses a \u003cstrong\u003esignificantly higher proportion of rye\u003c\/strong\u003e — giving it a distinctly spicier, more assertive character compared to sweeter wheated bourbons. At 114 proof, that rye spice is front and center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eHow should I serve it?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eExcellent neat or with a few drops of water to tame the proof and open up the rye spice and caramel.
