    Great stuff. Go to aged mixer, but definitely sippable. Not too concerned about the added sugar.

    Good value for the price but notably rougher than ideal for sipping. Forgiven based on the approachable price point. I generally mix this these days but probably won’t buy again.

    Pretty vile stuff. Bought back when and still on the shelf. Impure ethanol, best used for lighting something on fire.

    Not bad, depending on the dilution level the mint flavor can taste pretty medicinal and synthetic. Hard to complain for clearance prices though.

  • Angel's Envy Rye Finished in Caribbean Rum Casks

    Rye — USA

    Reviewed September 11, 2018 (edited November 10, 2019)

    Wow. Creamy sweet honeysuckle nose with a hint of graham cracker and herbal note to betray its rye. Butter toffee on the palate and oh so silky smooth. A totally unique, delicious dessert that drinks waay below it’s 100 proof and only subtle hints as to the spice of its 95% rye mash. Cinnamon Toast Crunch until the gentle herbal finish that suggest curry powder (don’t worry, it works). This will be disappointing to purists but is extremely well crafted and a totally enjoyable break from the norm. Love it as an option on the shelf. A little overpriced to be potentially confused as a digestivo but I’d buy it again.

    Harsh for the supposed age. Might just not be my thing, but haven’t come around to it despite slowly having most of the bottle over the last few years.

    Light, sweet, orange rind. Simple and pretty one-dimensionable, but it is one heck of a value.
