Edward_call_me_Ed Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I did an informal vatting experiment tonight. A while ago I got my first bottle of Old Overholt straight rye. The first night I drank it I liked it a lot. Later visits to the same bottle left me feeling less satisfied. Tonight I had a pour of Wild Turkey Rye. Good stuff. Burns more than I like, but good spicy rye whiskey. Had a small pour of Old Overholt and it was all right. Sweeter, milder, no burn. I got to thinking and went back and poured myself a little more Overholt and then dribbled some Wild Turkey Rye into it. I thought the Old Overholt was much improved. Was it better than the WTR? I don't know. I do know that I will be repeating the experiment under more controlled conditions in the future. (Now I am drinking some OGD 114.)Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillman Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Try sprinkling some straight rye (any kind) into Canadian whisky, remarkable how it improves the result.Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
