I was able to sample the Still Austin Rye. It was good. A spicy and citrus flavor to it. Not bad for the price point. Anyone tried it lately?

Our bourbon group had a very good rye tasting last night.

I still have a couple of the older label Austin Nichols WT Ryes like in the photo.

Do you think there is much difference between those and the current release.

I've heard great things about the Michter's 10 year rye. Haven't been able to find it locally

This evening is a healthy pour of Sagamore Rye Double Oaked.  Wonderful stuff. I just wish it had a bit more proof. 48.3 ABV.... could stand a bit more, IMO. As always, Sagamore is quality whiskey... especially at it's price point.

I wanted to participate in Frye-Day this week! I’m usually drinking beer at this hour but not feeling it tonight.  
 

All SBs discussion on JD made me crack this PS from 19. I think it might be a winner. Although it’s a bit musty and a spearmint cedar banana note is definitely present.

I picked up a Heaven Hill grain to glass rye and finally cracked it open tonight. In a word wow. Maybe one of the better rye whiskeys I have sampled. At $80 it was well worth it

Double dipped today, picked up a Chattanooga CS rye and a JDSBBS rye to replace the one I emptied last week.

 

Nice.  I haven't seen the new Chattanooga CS rye in my neck of the woods yet, but I plan on picking one up when I do.

That 6 year was really fun. Somewhere in between the quirky early bottles and the solid mgp mimic they finally achieved.the 6 year may actually be my favorite, and is the closest to the 5th anniversary bottle to anything else they have ever released.

I met a new friend fixing his solar. It took a couple visits so we traded samples. Ive gotten into the chat experimental tonight. It is finished  in ammaro barrels. The first sip was pretty terrible, but by the third it is somehow deeply satisfying. I wouldn't go seeking one out, but as a curiosity pour it is really different from pretty much any other rye I've ever had. Second photo is what I left at the house. Jb white minis are as cheap as boston rounds and come full of jb.

I really enjoyed the Sagamore Spirit. That said, I could not warm up to the Midwinter night’s dram. I bought it as part of a bundle with Eagle Rare. I’ll give it another try now that I am starting to develop a taste for ryes
