A RYE herf

[AVB]

Some of my fellow cigar smokers and I got together at my place on July 19th and did a blind taste test of 5 ryes. All were cut to 90 proof to make it as equal as possible. You can see the results here.

Not that surprising results I think. I haven’t tasted the Hirsch 21 and BMH 23, but the first have got almost exclusively bad reviews here on the forum and 23 years are a bit old for most brands. I did drink a whole bottle of Mitchers 10 when in Kentucky 2006. Tasted very dry, woody and generally overage to me.
Most people consider willet 22 and Sazerac18 top brands. Personally I think Willet 22 is one of the best whiskeys I ever had.
