A.H. Hirsch 16 vs. Van Winkle Lawrenceburg Rye?

[jsrudd]

Thinking about this, the years are probably wrong after the Medley and CoK were mixed since we have no idea how old the CoK was.

Rumors of the demise of VW Rye are (IMO ) premature. Some folks have reported the blending in of BT stock rye w the tanked stuff over the last couple of years. I have been lucky enough  to taste Medley only , tanked and most recently the 2015 release. I can tell you the new version has all of the hallmarks of the tanked. That "barely legal" bourbony profile but with plenty of old oak notes and some rye spice backbone. Wish I would have had the chance to nab one last fall.
