At NJ Whiskylive, for me, this was the surprise hit. 100% Rye. But...Nothing like rye at all, more like a coffee / mocha liqueur. Thick and oily. For $40, a no-brainer.

Love this - only had a single pour but it was eye-opening. Rye has been going through a renaissance recently, and new approaches to fermentation are paying off in spades. Rye is the thing to watch in the US and Australia right now, and I predict that in a couple of years European rye whiskies will sweep the awards.
