JD Rye BiB for me tonight. I’ve been going back to this bottle since opening recently. When I finish this one, I will pick up another for sure.

I need to try the JD bib rye. I quite enjoy the JD bib whiskey, it is like a poor mans version of the SiB BP, IMO.

Never heard of Kinsey before but when I saw cask strength rye, finished in Amarone casks, and for $55, I had to try it. 

 

It is a store pick for WorldWide Wine & Sprits in Connecticut. It is good, really good, especially for the price. 

 

The nose is full of rich red wine notes and the palette doesn't disappoint. Rich grape and wine notes with some fruity and rye sweetness followed by a nice rye peppery (mild pepper) finish. Wow. I really enjoyed it and recommend it highly.

 

Not sure how similar this is to other offerings of Kinsey's, but this was great. 

 

8.75/10

I think this one is next on my list. I saw a deal for 4 of the usual Michter's varieties (Sour Mash, Bourbon, American Whiskey, Rye) for $119. That seems like an awesome price.

If I recall, my favorite out of those 4 was the American. But I haven't had it in several yrs and my memory doesn't work like it once did. The price seems very reasonable. If anything make cocktails with them.

I think the bourbon is good at its price. Haven't tried the others. That said, the bundle is more than fairly priced

This was a very busy weekend, but I made time to share some drinks with friends. This sib Ezra 7 fp rye is really good.

Curious for thoughts on the EH Taylor Straight Rye. I picked on up yesterday but haven't opened it yet. Is it indeed a Rye bourbon?

It is a straight rye whiskey. 

I have read and heard good things about it but I have yet to try it myself.

 

If you don't kind me asking, what was the price of said btl? I haven't seen a btl in sometime, so nice find.

I found it for $99. Not terrible. Bought it with the Barrel Strength variety as well. Not easy to find these so I was happy to add them

I picked up a Barrel Strength a couple months ago. I found it to be delicious.  Considerably better than the 2 or 3 other btls I had. Enjoy!

I enjoyed the Barrel Strength, even more so at much less than the secondary market pricing which can be crazy

Sitting outside burning up the severed pieces of an old wooden ladder in the fire pit.  Old Forester Rye seemed like the recommended pour for such activities as this.  The neighborhood frogs are trilling their approval.
