Tasted neat. Wow! WT has serious kung fu. I love WTRB and I hoped for a lot from this expression. I'm not disappointed. Fruity, a lot of spices, ginger, mint, forward menthol, bold - this isn't for the rye shy. Compared with EH Taylor rye, this is full color and the EHT is faded, lacking in contrast, and veiled. That's actually a little hard to say because the EHT is a superb rye. This is just in a different class, especially considering its price point. Not cheap, but setting the mark for the style. Highly recommended.
