Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye (Fall 2015)

Handy is one of my Favs. I have the opportunity to try this classic vintage... And I'm so happy that I did. I usually don't read other reviews before typing my own. Here, I did review the pro-review posted. It's spot on. Chocolate and spice.. Mexican Hot Chocolate. There is the slightest medicinal note in the Aroma that keeps this from scoring higher. I'm 99% sure I've scored other vintages higher.. Actually needs some drops of water to show you its best. Finish is amazing and lasting. (favorite part)

Wow wow wow! This is great. It has classic aged high proof and high quality rye. I would love to side by side this with Kentucky Owl Batch 1. I think that would be a close race. The finish is long. The palate is sweet. Amazing!
