Pretty good rye, especially at SRP. Don't get suckered into secondary just because it's Buffalo Trace, but worth keep an eye out for. Although the bottle says it's great for a Sazerac cocktail, I've found Rittenhouse BiB or Old Overholt BiB are better for such things, they carry more over in the mix. However, I'd have to say, Sazerac wins by a hair when served neat over most of its competitors at the same price point. The real difference likely comes down to the rumoured lower Rye % in Sazerac vs many others. Sazerac might contain as little as 51% rye, and at 90 proof its not nearly as hot and spicy as its competitors. Side not: It's another cool bottle to add to your shelf, so that itself can be worth the hunt.
