This is really good rye. There is a smoothness and dimension to this not found in most I have tried. It is well above the HW Double Rye. IMO it has as much flavor as the WhistlePig 10 yr but more in line with flavors I prefer. (Cinnamon, cloves, and citrus). The only reason it does not get 4 stars from me is the $75 NC price. I will just drink great bourbon and sip Sazerac 6 for a night cap every now and then when I need a change of pace. I just can't see $75 much less $85 for WP 10yr. Too many good bourbons out there to break bank on rye. GSO Buyers Club selection. @ridethalightin
