Zuidam Millstone 100 Rye Whisky

I like ryes and this doesn’t disappoint. Very fruity, a taste of vanilla. Nice and sweet. Very satisfying.

Spice with just enough sweet to balance out the drink. Very smooth with a back end bite from the spice

This is a unique rye, I have had many rye, none like this. It is very fresh on the nose like being the first on the golf course in the morning. You also get a ton of rye bread, like your fixin to make a delicious peppered pestrami sandwich. The palate is a bit thin, but a lot of classic rye flavors really come through. Pepper, spice, rye and grass are all here, but it tastes a little thin to me. Most of the rye I have on my collection is cask strength, so this feels like the Miller Light of rye, but that's how the Europeans roll, apparently...

Incredibly smooth
