Joe
Joe,
Werthers candy and peanuts. Oily, nutty spice. Unripe pear. Medium warmth.
 
Bryce
Bryce,
Great Rye for sipping. I got in for $45 on sale in NC which for this bottle is a great price. Now I see it for about $60 these days. I wouldn't pay that much for it, but I also don't stock sipping Rye on a regular basis. Having said that, if you always have a sipping rye on hand, you'll be hard pressed to find a better bottle in this general price range. With a single ice cube, this whiskey really opened up. Very well balanced between the rye spice and the sweetness.

James
James,
Lots of spice, but also a fair amount of sweetness. Really well balanced and a nice mouthfeel and finish. I get a fair amount of banana coming through. The high alcohol content doesn’t overpower the complex flavor

Travis
Travis,
sweat malty nose with some rye spice on the back end. tasted marshmallow, sour bread, and a clean spiced finished. A rare mixer and a sipper all at the same time.

Simply awesome. New favorite rye!

Angel,
Brown sugar, cinnamon spice, vanillas can be found. It drinks more like a bourbon but the high abv. gives it that rye spice. If you are looking for a gateway into rye try this with a few drops of water. You might be pleasantly surprised.
 
David
David,
Darn near perfect. For such a high proof rye, it's so smooth, with the expected rye bite coming at the end. Easy sipper, plan to always have this on my shelf. Price point spot on for this whiskey.

Nice sipping Rye with a strong pepper finish. Great on lite ice or as an Manhattan
 
Matthew
Matthew,
Color is a reddish copper. Nose starts with a little ethanol, definitely needs a minute to sit and breathe. After allowing it to breathe, a mildly sweet aroma emerges. Notes of cocoa, subtle cherry, and mild spice. First sip packs a bit of a punch from the proof and rye spice; it is a little less sweet than the nose lets on, almost dry. Rye spice and black pepper are the predominate flavors on the palate initially. As acclimation to the proof and rye spice occurs, notes of cream, leather, and just a hint of tobacco finish off the palate. Finish is a long linger of the rye spice, accentuated by the drying of the palate by the high proof. Overall a fantastic example of Rye Whiskey, with a high proof high spice flavor.

Smoother than you would think for 110 proof
 
Jon
Jon,
Fantastic rye. Surprised to see so many calling this spicy, though. For me, despite its proof, this is a sweeter, more cherried rye. Incredibly smooth for 110p.

Spice and sweet in perfect balance. Name a better rye... I dare you!

Olaf
Olaf,
A strong body with a sharpness to it that I have come to love of rye. Very impressive drink that challenges much more pricey bottles of rye.
 
Ben
Ben,
Great all around Rye. 110 proof, but great any way you want to drink it. I take it backpacking (straight), and I like it in my manhattans.
 
Patrick
Patrick,
I like drinking ryes and this is a fine one. Maybe quite as good as not as the E.H Taylor rye but a solid expression. If you like Rittenhouse you’ll enjoy this one.
