FasterHorses Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 A local had a 9 yr barrel proof wheated Dry Fly store pick. I know nothing about it except its distilled in WA. Pretty reasonable at $59 for a 9 yr. Barrel Proof but no sample available. Anyone have info on these guys? May head back tomorrow and gamble on it.

Wedelstaedt Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I truly know nothing about the Dry Fly BP. But the local Taters go bonkers, when they come across them. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kepler Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I've never heard of Dry Fly. But I'm with Bourbon Scout on this, it sounds like a condition. They might want to go see a doctor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend brought to a cigar party. I liked it. Different. Not sure how to describe it. Smooth. Very, umm, wheaty. Probably not super helpful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fly fishing, a dry fly is a small lure intended to float on the surface, resembling an insect. As far as the whiskey brand, expensive craft stuff is a tough sell with me. I saw it a time or two and passed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzhead Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 I recall enjoying a bottle of their 3-year wheat whiskey, but not enough to spring for a second bottle. It may be instructive to hear from others what craft bourbons folks have like well enough to earn repeat business. For me, craft bourbons I've bought again include FEW, Woodinville, Driftless Glen, BBC Fusion and Wilderness Trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannabis Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I got a bottle of Dry Fly triticale whiskey port finish barrel proof and it is phenomenal tasting. I was skeptical but pleasantly surprised.
