Reviewed August 16, 2019 (edited January 20, 2020)A sample from dthom as part of the "whiskey transfer program". I liked this a lot and I'm pretty picky on rye. Nose: Roasted nuts, dark sugars, baking spices, herbal notes like dill, freshly peeled cucumber. Flavor: More caramelized sugars and baking spices, more freshly peeled cucumber, nice buttery mouth feel. Not as hot as I'd expect. Finish: Medium long, spicy, baking spices. Very straightforward rye with great flavors and an excellent balance of sweet and hot. Definitely recommend.0.0 USD per Bottle -

Reviewed August 15, 2019 (edited September 11, 2020)Taste: 2 oz. neat in glen cairn Nose: (4.75) Chocolate, cherries, toasted buttered rye bread, red apples, cereal bars, and smoke. Super luxurious nose. You smell it, you want to taste it plain and simple. This is rich. Palate (5.0): The apples and brown sugar come through, but then you get a spicy hit. Allspice perhaps? That rich dark chocolate is on the back palate along with the cherry. Reminds me of biting into a chocolate covered cherry cordial. The mouthfeel is buttery, not coating. The legs are thick and slow with this one. Finish: (5.0) Sweet cream butter, chocolate, rye, and a puff of smoke. The cereal bar on the nose comes in. There is some well mannered oak too. Overall: I have waited to rate this one until now. It is such an intense and delicious offering at the get go I didn't want to jump to judgement. The verdict is in.....hands down, if not THE best rye out there. I still cant decide between this or the Cornerstone Rye. They are different but the difference is like trying to choose your favorite car between a classic Corvette or a Shelby GT 500. Different animals, gorgeous in their own right74.99 USD per Bottle -

Reviewed August 15, 2019 (edited October 12, 2019)This is a nice rye whiskey. It is very well balanced and smooth for being barrel strength. Not as complex as Michter's 10 Year Rye but higher proof and only half the price. Barrel 18F838. Proof 109.4.80.0 USD per Bottle
