White Dog Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Haven't had Rendezvous myself, but I must say: Is there anything better than Van Winkle Rye??:cool: :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spy247 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I am also about to buy a few bottles of this 6yr/16yr rye blend. All reviews on the web have been excellent.But I'd like to hear from a SB member who's tried it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trumpstylz Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I agree. While I feel its unfair to compare it to the van winkle, it is a solid and unique rye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnHansell Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 It's very good. Probably my favorite of the various High West releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdeffe Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I really like the HW Rendezvous. It's a very Rye rye whiskey with a lot of spicy notes and less woody than some older ryes can beSteffen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wripvanwrinkle Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 The first time that I tried this from a friends bottle, I got alot of caramel and spice.But now from my own, I get an unusual nose: almost tomato and celery. You will think me nuts, but i also get horseradish. At this point it is an easy dram for me to identify blind, as I pick up a strong sense of a mixed bloody mary.
