Must admit to never having tried a rye whishey before, at least not without it being in an old fashioned, sazerac or a manhatten. So coming up to the season of good cheer I thought I'd go for it and here it is. It's a 100% version for the mixing obviously LOL. It arrived yesterday, so last night I gave it a try with just a pair of ice cubes for company. I have to say that I was pleasantly suprised, obviously with a whiskey of this strength there is a burn, but it was a very pleasant warming feel, rather than a coughing fit you can find with some stronger whiskeys, it has a slightly spicey flavour and was indeed very pleasant. I almost went back for seconds, but restrained myself on a school night. now looking forward to a few nicely mixed cocktails with this bottle
