Michter's 10 Year Single Barrel Rye
Rye — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed January 17, 2016 (edited April 24, 2018)Another New Year 2015/16 treat. This rye was well received and dispatched at the neighborhood party, enjoyed neat or on ice. -
Defiant American Single Malt Whisky
Other Whiskey — North Carolina, USA
Reviewed December 8, 2015 (edited December 14, 2015)Very enjoyable neat or with a small bit of water. A nice bread-yeast nose. The oak is understated letting the barley come through. A very nice and honest departure from your typical bourbon. -
Old Overholt Straight Rye Whiskey (80 proof)
Rye — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 8, 2015 (edited April 2, 2016)Smooth and even. Less spicy than Rittenhouse. Good everyday rye to keep in house, and especially in a pocket flask to share when hanging around. -
Rittenhouse Rye Bottled in Bond
Rye — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 8, 2015 (edited March 15, 2017)Love this rye! Spicy up front. Drink neat with just a bit of water. A big hit with the neighborhood bourbon guys (subourbonknights?) at a recent party. -
1792 Ridgemont Reserve Bourbon 8 Year
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed November 8, 2015 (edited December 12, 2015)Just an ordinary plain bourbon but somewhat harsh. Benefits from added water and time to breathe. Might be good for mixed drinks -
Nikka Taketsuru 12 Year Pure Malt
Blended Malt — Japan
Reviewed November 2, 2015 (edited February 28, 2016)My first Japanese whisky. Very nice nose - maple, peat, flowery. Peat flavor borders on soapy at first but finishes nicely. A little water helps
