b1gcountry Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 My favorite restaurant started casting a couple bottles of 77 corn and rye. I think they had it listed as a rye. They also had Henry du yore rye. They are around $7 pours. I had a hard time finding any info on them while searching on my phone in the restaurant. Should I pass up their Ritt, and Angels Envy rye one night to give either a try? Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, it's like studying for a final without reading the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFitzWithTheGoldLabel Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) I like trying new bourbons and ryes and the price isn't outrageous, so I would give them a try.

Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk My recollection supported by a brief foray into the interwebs is that it is New York sourced rye and corn distilled in Brooklyn of all places. Reportedly it is mostly rye (90%) and the rest corn. No idea about any malt or if commercial enzymes were used to. Likely (briefly) aged in small casks. There is also a wheat whiskey. I tried them both some time ago and perhaps not surprisingly was a little underwhelmed. The rye was more interesting than the wheat as I recall. But they did at least make it themselves and didn't source it if that counts for anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hawkeye62 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Here is my impression. https://www.straightbourbon.com/community/topic/24933-henry-duyore/ Give it a try and let us know what you think. I wish I had been able to try a pour. Regards, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeeTen Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 (edited) Heading back to Brooklyn tomorrow for grandbaby #2's third birthday party on Saturday. Will stop at Fletcher's BBQ on 3rd Ave. for a brisket sandwich and a pour of Breuckelen 77 Rye & Corn (for the team, of course!). Astor and Casker's say it's 90% Rye, 10% corn - others say 85% rye, 15% corn. May even have time to stop in at the distillery (hope, hope) for a taste or two. Will report back on Monday, promise. Edited May 4, 2017 by GeeTen Spelling, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
