3.5 stars - Very Good; 750 ml bottle
This is a delightful find. The first several pours were nothing special, but with time this has opened up nicely.
Spicy and herbal. Spice is from the oak and rye, slight hint of cinnamon. Herbal nature skews heavily towards mint. Fits right in the profile of the ryes from Michter’s, Willet, and New Riff. Those are better, but this is 30-50% lower cost. At the price, Knob Creek Rye is probably the closest competition, but I like Elijah better.
