elmossle Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Stagg jr to start. After that I polished off a bottle of HH6BIB. The night cap was a small pour of 1792 High Rye. No matter what, it was a good night on the Bourbon beverage front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonNit Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I wonder what Canadian Club is going to taste like when they sell off all there good barrels of rye and have nothing left for there blend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I dunno. Yeah, I know this stuff is overpriced. And it goes against some of my principles. It is pretty tasty though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonNit Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 I don't mean it in a bad way. I'm sure it's, really good some of the best rye you can buy. I just don't get why Canadian Club or whoever can't figure out a way to sell this directly to the consumer instead of a NDO. They'd make more money and we'd get a better deal. Also the Canadian distilleries even if business has been slow are likely running low on rye for there blends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil T Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Getting ready for some March Madness and enjoying a small pour of MM 46. The rebarreling of this bourbon gives it a hint of wood, with a nice sweetness and subtle vanilla undertone. An elegant bourbon that I have no problem pouring anytime.

They will see a 16 year old Canadian whiskey on the shelf and say "No thanks, I don't like Canadian whiskey". They see Lock Stock on the shelf and say "Oh yeah! 16 yr old rye whiskey with an old timey frontier name! Must be legit!". And they won't read the fine print on the label.

It is pretty tasty though. I really, really want to try this, as I love older Ryes. But I'm a little concerned it's going to be WhistplePig with a bit more age on it. Not that that is a bad thing, but I'm not sure how I would feel about paying ~3x as much for it. My understanding is this is from ADL where WhistplePig sources their 10 year. Have you compared the two? If the LSB16 is significantly better than WP10 I don't think I would mind the premium. I'm going to be in LA next weekend and I'm stopping at Seven Grand, which has a huge selection so maybe I can find a pour of LSB16 or 13.

EQ, I wish I could help you here but unfortunately I've never tried anything from WhistlePig. I'm not an expert rye drinker and this one was a bit of a deviation purchase for me, as a reward to myself . But I'm not sorry I bought it because it's a very interesting pour unlike anything else I have in my liquor cabinet. But I only have a handful of ryes in total ... WT101 & 81 rye, Rittenhouse, Michters LE barrel proof, and THH are ones I can think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
