Old Man Winter 18 year old rye

I have an opportunity to possibly get one of these, but there is very little info out there. Has anyone actually tried this? Thoughts? Thanks in advance!

I have tried this, and like the Willett 25yr rye I tried last year, the oak presence is strong on this one. The kind of strong that takes over the flavor to the point of being bitter. It's very much not my thing but for those who prefer that profile it's a beautiful thing.

If you are familiar with Saz 18 and are hoping to draw a comparison due to the same age, I can tell you they are nothing alike.

That's exactly the info I was looking for! Thanks so much!
