Reviewed December 7, 2020 (edited May 15, 2022)My local liquor store had this tagged with a 100/100 rating, so my expectations were high. Didn't measure up, but solid. Great Caramel Vanilla nose. They taste doesn't quite live up to the nose. Definitely has the bite of a younger Rye. Nice fruity finish from the cognac cask but not very smooth. Potential to be very good with more time in the barrel. -

Reviewed May 21, 2020 (edited July 22, 2021)The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it. In conclusion - this rye was fine but would recommend the Bodelan bourbon by Far North instead of this offering.
