What the “95” means
On its official history page, Bulleit describes the recipe as 95% rye and 5% malted barley. The number is a recipe reference, not an age statement. The brand dates the expression’s introduction to 2011; its current product page confirms 45% ABV.
Distilled in Indiana, bottled in Alabama
The rear label separates two roles: distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, and bottled by Bulleit Frontier Whiskey, Hope Hull, AL. That wording describes this photographed bottle. It does not identify a source distillery by name, and we do not infer one from the city alone.
The photographed $39.99 shelf tag
The electronic tag names BULLEIT American Rye Whiskey, lists 750 ML and displays 39.99. Its printed unit price is $1.58 per ounce. The bottle identity and tag description align in the supplied views.
The photos do not establish the retailer, capture date, current availability or today’s checkout price. No discount or price comparison is inferred.
