High quality product for the price, which kicks it from a 4 to a 5 rating. Floral grassy nose, balanced grain and oak body, and a spicy rye finish, all with a 100 proof kick. Great mixer for classic cocktails, or drink it with a little ice. Every time I retaste this it rises in comparison to the much more expensive ryes I've been drinking.

Dry Fly Straight Washington Wheat Whiskey
Wheat Whiskey — Washington , USA
Reviewed July 13, 2018 (edited March 2, 2023)Medium body wheat whiskey, nothing overly complex. Cooked sweet cereal, even floral, flavor profile. Creamy, but light enough that it disappears in a cocktail against other strong flavors, so better sipped. Very good if you appreciate it for what it is (a young wheat whiskey) and isnt, and what Dry Fly is building in the Pacific NW. I like this company's approach and look forward to seeing them age their whiskey over 4 years on a regular basis -
Olmeca Altos Plata Tequila
Tequila Blanco — Los Altos, Jalisco, Mexico
Reviewed July 13, 2018 (edited July 15, 2023)Great quality and price for a blue agave. Earthy agave, then a clean grassy, citrus, and mineral taste. Medium-coating mouthfeel. A little saline/mineral bitterness in the finish. Not a true sipping tequila (although you can). This is a great mixer and daily choice for cocktails. Hard to beat, especially at this price point.
