Bourbon...

Also really like the 15 year old WhistlePig Rye. It’s a little pricey but is very smooth and flavorful.
@Dave Hill recently hooked me up with a single barrel Buffalo Trace that is also very good.

Rye fans, you gotta try this.
It’s awesome!
Knob Creek cask strength rye.

I thought this was a bourbon thread? I love Rye, it's my favorite. Here's a good one...
Whistlepig is a good one I agree. I also like Templeton and Knob Creek. It's a good time to be a Rye fan.
can get that all day long around here but, 50+ for a bottle that smallish bottle that says Jack on it ? I don't know about that.
Has anyone tried the Angels Envy Rye?
Looking for some opinions on this one.

I'd say less sweet than bourbon (you get that sweetness from the corn), a bit more 'bitey' or spicy would even be a good word. Not spicy like hot pepper spicy though. I've heard people describe it as acrid, but I'm not sure I'd go there.

I definitely wouldn't say acrid. I agree with you Mike in that it's less sweet and more spicy. It's tastes nothing like Rye in the commonly thought of sense
Indeed. It's that time of year folks.
I'm actually glad the bourbon crazy is still hanging around and people are lining up around the block, entering raffles, and emptying their wallets for those boutique bourbons. It makes finding the real gems at realistic prices much easier.
What year is that Weller @10cc?

The Pappy Van Winkel lottery is on again in PA.
I signed up for just about everything we could afford.
They start at the top and work their way down through the packages in decreasing order of value (one package was about $2k - passed on that one, and a couple of others).
You can win at most one.
Last year, we snagged a 10 year and managed to ration it into October.
Winners announced by December 10.

12 years old. It was had for just under $90
Also got our hands on a few 12 year old Wellers along with some 107’s
