NY Style Rye.

19th century Brooklyn was full of distilleries that produced everything from Rum and Gin to Whiskey. All these enterprises closed when Prohibition came knocking on the door and it wasn’t until the new Millennium when once again that distillation became an up and coming enterprise. Opened in 2012, Van Brunt Stillhouse got its name after Cornelius Van Brunt, one of the founding fathers of the neighborhood. Its founder Daric Schlesselman started with producing the first Rum hailing from Brooklyn since the Prohibition era. Other spirits soon followed, such as Grappa and different grain distillates. Daric, a former editor at Daily Show, decided to leave the world of TV and dedicate himself to reanimation of Spirits that have once flown from distilleries in these parts.

Armed with craving for experimentation and a great sense for historical means of production Van Brunt Stillhouse is paying tribute to distillation as it once was in Brooklyn.
 
Van Brunt Stillhouse Rye Whiskey is made from 100% rye mash-bill. Rye is sourced from the farms within the state of New York then distilled in Red Hook, Brooklyn and aged in medium sized barrels that give this Spirit a great vivid and lively palate. A great showcase of a young artisanal Rye.

Ratings & Reviews
Member Reviews and Ratings of Van Brunt Stillhouse Rye Whiskey
Shannon
Shannon,
I enjoyed the sample from one of Flaviar's kits, but upon buying a whole bottle it tasted too buttery. I suspect this is small batch and the consistency isn't quite there yet. Still good, but there are better options for the price.
 
Grant
Grant,
I’m finding that I enjoy rye quite a bit. This one was easy to drink with a hint of sweetness.
 
Angela
Angela,
very medicinal
 
Antti
Antti,
It is a good, intense, with a bold & oily birth; while an intense life leads to a long, oily & toasty death with bitter oakiness & a hint of sugar.
 
Lloyd
Lloyd,
I'm not much of a Rye fan, but this… simply, where had this rye been all my life and I'll be having a bottle of this in my personal stash.
 
Anne
Anne,
super smooth, easy taste, but great taste
 
Shannon
Shannon,
Lots of wood and floral notes. Perfect amount of spice. Maybe my new favorite rye.
 
Jonathan
Jonathan,
Very tasty
 
Stefani
Stefani,
Aroma of fresh tobacco is beautiful and inviting. The botanicals take it in a surprising direction. If you like interesting botanical gins, you will probably like this rye.
 
Ansley
Ansley,
Clean, nice rye nose, smooth bread pudding finish
 
chris
chris,
smells like dough , herbal taste.
 
Holly
Holly,
So smooth and good flavor. Really enjoyed this rye. Not sure it’s worth the price though. Tried it with my Advent Calendar.
 
Patrick
Patrick,
very medicinal
 
Greg
Greg,
Not too bad. These rye whiskeys are growing on me. It was a little outside my wheelhouse but it's got flavor. I wouldn't hesitate to give it a try!
 
HJ
HJ,
A little sweet with some definite spice. The nose has elements of peppermint. Pretty good, but not my fave.
 
Jordan
Jordan,
Strong young wood flavor. Not my cup of tea but definitely has some stand out flavors that others might love
 
Jeffry
Jeffry,
Pretty good complex flavor profile. More Smokey and less sweet than most ryes. Probably a little expensive for what you are getting though
 
Gregory
Gregory,
Oaky
 
Paul
Paul,
I dig it; lots of complexity with the herbal Smokey up front flavor, the oily mouthfeel and long Spicey finish. Funky.
 
Lee
Lee,
Very herbaceous. Too long of a finish. A bit oily on the tongue., even a touch of terpentine. Does not have the bite I seek in a rye.
 
Alex
Alex,
It smells like it has a strong oak taste but it tastes like it was aged in barrels of green wood. Not too bad but I wouldn't buy a bottle for myself.
 
James
James,
Not a really flavorful rye.
 
Austin
Austin,
Strong wood and smoke flavors
 
Brita
Brita,
Spicy! Very tasty
 
Amy
Amy,
I couldn’t sip this — tasted like wet leaves and bitterness. Perhaps interesting in a cocktail, but no comparison to the other selections in the tasting box.
 
Jesi
Jesi,
A little more sting in the aroma than I am accustomed to. Rated a 7 for the taste tho.
 
Scott
Scott,
I really wish the nose matched up with the flavor more. The herbal nose/flavor gives way to a woody & what I am assuming is the "cardamom" spice note that doesn't suit my palate well.
 
Roger
Roger,
Damn this was the favorite out of the sampler, I will be adding this bottle to my collection. Smooth and what a great taste.
 
Timothy
Timothy,
I really enjoyed this Rye
 
John
John,
Nice tasting Rye. I am confused as the Flavor spiral on the app is much different than the one sent with my sample
 
Shoji
Shoji,
Decent
 
Shannon
Shannon,
If you want to taste what an oak tree in your mouth tastes like, than this is for you. Me not so much.
 
Scott
Scott,
Coriander, Pine, Cardamom and Botanicals made for a very interesting spice feel.
 
Joseph
Joseph,
Hated it. If you like Gin you might like this Whiskey.
 
Carlos
Carlos,
Smooth finish with flowery hints.
 
Frank
Frank,
This is a really flavorful Rye. Absolutely one for the sipping room.
 
Phil
Phil,
I loved it very smooth and great taste.
 
Jonathan
Jonathan,
I get a wood-varnish nose and finish that I'm not too fond of, but it's overall decent, with an herbal spice on the palate. I agree with Peyton on the peppery finish with a hint of cardamom, but the vaporous varnish aspect keeps me from enjoying this more.
 
Daniel
Daniel,
Lots of herbs and cardamom in both the nose and flavor. Excellent complex whiskey.
 
Henry
Henry,
Perfect Manhattan
 
Ryan
Ryan,
The flavor spiral that arrived with my sample is totally different than this one. The version on the app is much more accurate than the one I was sent with the sample pack.
 
Peyton
Peyton,
Honey-Caramel-Orange peel Nose. Sharp Smokey-Woody Body, Over Powers and lingers. Pepper shows up at the end with a slight Cardamom flavor
 
Aaron
Aaron,
After reading reviews I've often wondered if my bottle was skunked or if I'm crazy. I found it bitter and rough. It wasn't smokey, it was burned.
 
Josh
Josh,
Nose: honey, caramel, currant, clove Flavor: oak, phenolic, citrus, spicy The woody dryness is so upfront and pronounced, that it nearly downs out the subtlies that exist underneath. If they could figure out a way to mellow it out just a smidge, it would be a far more complex and interesting spirit.
 
Robert
Robert,
Loved it! One of the best rye whiskies I've tasted. A very fun and flavorful sip.
 
Ernie
Ernie,
This excellent. Smooth and easy to drink.
 
Kyle
Kyle,
A very smooth and flavorful rye. I really enjoy the nose with a pleasant wood aroma. Something different.
 
Browning
Browning,
It was without question the smoothest, full body, and tastiest Rye I've tried for the value. Highest recommendation.
