After killing my bottle of EC18 last night I refilled my glass with Willet 5yr old rye. It was eggnog + nutmeg clear as day. I never got that out of the bottle before so maybe it has something to do with the combination. Going to see if I can pick that out again tonight without the EC's help.
At Jack Ryan's in D.C. and ordered two ryes I'd never tried. High West Bourye vs VWFRR.
I liked the VW just fine, but the Bourye was heavenly. Dang I need to find a bottle.

I've grown quite fond of KC Rye, and have been drinking it regularly, as of late.
HOTALING'S - this is a fantastic pour, wish it was still in production!
