Overview
Old Ezra is an age-stated, higher-proof whiskey family within the Ezra Brooks and Lux Row Distillers portfolio. Produced by Lux Row Distillers in Bardstown, Kentucky, Old Ezra is best known for Old Ezra 7 Year Barrel Strength Bourbon and related age-stated bourbon and rye releases.
The brand is important because it gives Lux Row a more premium, enthusiast-facing extension of the Ezra Brooks family. Where Ezra Brooks covers broad-access bourbon and rye, Old Ezra focuses on older, stronger, and more limited whiskey.
Brand History
Old Ezra grew out of the Ezra Brooks brand family and became a distinct identity for higher-proof and age-stated releases. Its 7 Year Barrel Strength Bourbon earned attention from bourbon drinkers looking for proof, age, and value within the Lux Row portfolio.
As Lux Row’s whiskey lineup expanded, Old Ezra also moved into rye whiskey, giving the brand a broader role beyond bourbon alone.
