Mattk Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 So I've had a selection of mediocre ryes on my shelf at low fill for quite some time. And I have resolved to tidying up. So today was bottle kill day on quite a few. After some heavily varied pours that included an Irish rye, some Canadian, and a few kentucky ryes that didn't quite cut it. She poured me one of her regular buffalo traces and I have to say it sits very well after the huge variety of flavors I've had tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0895 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Enjoying some of the best 4R I’ve ever had. Better than many of the LE’s. 8y, 4m OESQ, 60.4% from 2015. I’ve been savoring this bottle for about 4 years now, argon gassing it in between. It’s still as good as I remember. Yes, the photo is accurate. It is very dark bourbon. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob_Loblaw Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Makers 101. It’s been forever since I’ve had the regular Makers so hard to make a comparison. It’s fine, not overly complex, but certainly enjoyable. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsfan1311 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I've "almost" bought this a few times. Mrs. Skinsfan talked me into it today. I've never had it. It's resting right now. I hope that they picked some good barrels when they bottled this juice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's good but, for the $$$, I prefer MMCS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEE Wiki at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seagram for a summary of the history of Seagrams. Samuel Bronfman was quite character. There's even a US Supreme Court case involving him and Columbia Pictures circa the "Jaws" release that is ABSOLUTELY instructive for prosecutors. It tells us HOW to ASK questions and to LISTEN to the answers. A college classmate of mine worked for Seagram and was nominally in charge of the distillery now known as MPG Ingredients. It was many years after he left Seagram that we compared notes and found out I was enamored of bourbon and he had actually been responsible for making it. Nowadays, Seagrams 7 is nothing more than flavored vodka. So sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
