Pikesville Straight Rye

Holy SPICE. Good neat but damn does it make the best Manhattan both sides of the Mississippi.

Really mature well balanced Rye, a wonderful sipper. Don't think I could bring myself to muddle this one in a cocktail. Boldy smooth with a great finish. Top pick for me!

Clear amber body thick legging. Spicy pepper herbal tobacco oak aroma. Tobacco spicy pepper herbal earthy woody flavor. Medium body moderate alcohol. 8/4/7/4/14 3.7

Cherry cola, light lingering heat

If you like rye, this should be in your collection. It's got traditional rye spice notes, but also sets itself apart with cherry and oak. I'm sure it will make a mean cocktail base, and on the rocks it has a great profile.

Nice nose … almost bourbon like. Not spicy or really reminiscent of a rye. However, the taste disappointing me. The nose did not transfer over. Felt a little thin and even a bit Fenty. finish with short. I’ll come back to it, but was disappointed given a lot of people hyping this up as an on the shelf everyday great buy.
