10%) Proof: 130° Age: NAS (~8 years) Further identification: Batch 19 was first released (though a little Overall it's a little proof-imbalanced, but opening up well with time, air and patience. The linger is sharp and aggressive with little reward outside of some slightly sweet waxy tones.

I've never been one for Larceny barrel proof personally, so I'm a little worried this might be another This is just a classic aged whiskey aroma; the soft red winter wheat may have been a little too soft A larger sip and swish reveal a touch more cinnamon than before, but little in the way of complexity. I'm always surprised by how spice forward Heaven Hill's wheat mash can be... looking at you Old Fitzgerald

I took two sips and foolishly went to text myself: "FIND WELLER 12 WHEN YOU GET HOME". If you're a little more needy than that, like I am, let's dive a little deeper on what I enjoyed about Michter's 10 Year Bourbon // Kings County Bottled-in-Bond Recommendations based on wheated mash bill: Boone Makers, Boone county or Old Louisville. - @fitwildwest If I can't get a Weller 12 and really want an

The hype around this one still boggles my mind a little bit because I have had single barrel picks that the creamy mouthfeel but I find a small flash of sandalwood in the linger sometimes which scares me a little the batch 1 release: I thought the sandalwood note was unique to batch 2, but I do find it hidden in little It's incredible how similar the tasting notes ended up on this one when I look back at batch 1 now. I've also noticed today that both corks on the Russell's 13 releases are running a little looser than

There's a deep lemon note persistent all throughout this that reminds me a little bit like Willett, but it present a little more like Knob 12. Nearing the last sip the nose turns a bit dusty and nutty; like a Booker's Granny's Batch peanut experience pre-dinner is thin but zesty with plenty of that lemon forward profile coming out, but here it has a little The last sip is surprisingly vanilla forward, with a little ethanol linger and thick cherry cola effervescence

Right away it shows up a little young, with the rye grain being quite apparent. Hints of plastic are a true oddity for something with as little malt content as the stated mash bills

I'm running a little behind on reviewing these Blue Run releases! So many bottles, so little time! I'm looking forward to tasting through this one tonight, it feels like a good pour given the setting There's little to no heat on this one at all despite the proof. A swirl of the glass builds in stronger vanilla notes, a little bit of pepper and a layer of synthetic recommend this to someone who is new to rye as an exploration pour, but seasoned rye lovers will likely be looking

I'm a little too tired for an in depth review tonight, but it's Friday Rye-Day so I thought I'd pour zesty and spicy early on the nose, but not sharp or biting now that this bottle has been open for a little

Well, I'm a little late after St. Paddy's day getting this posted up. If you want a visual of what these 16 beauties look like on the counter, check out my introduction reel I would prefer to do individual head to head tastings, or a smaller blind flight, but this is a fun little

Reminds me a little bit of a good Booker's batch aroma. It's similar to the experience many find later on in a Booker's Country Ham where things take on that Some slight smokiness is forming late in the glass; as if you left something in the pan a little too A little more proof now than previous sips, this is definitely one that builds with you as you keep sipping

This has a great funk to it on the nose I always enjoy; similar to what I dig about Booker's batches. It's amazing what a little temperature change can do to a pour. Honey now is quite sweet! Looking forward to sharing this with guests around a fire and seeing how it develops with a little air

This one is showing a little bit of proof imbalance later in the glass. Brittany sipped this and thought this was a little too spicy for her palate. Woah, after refreshing my palate with some water this took on a rich butterscotch and nutty profile that The brown sugar bomb comes off just a little too spicy. This is a barrel proof lovers delight. It's than little bit of flashy over-proofed linger that knocks this down just below the Taylor.
