Bourbon

I only drink rye in a cocktail, Manhattan, old fashioned, boulevardier, etc, all of which benefit from the drier, spicier notes of rye compared to bourbon.

imo, of course.

 

Imo, too.

 

enjoying a Manhattan w/ the 1776 rye right now, in fact. it's lovely.

 

picked up a bottle of Four Roses OESO Single Barrel today. 50%, and a little hot neat, but nice and smooth with a big cube.

this is my intro to the Single Barrel series from 4R. this one was $53 at Total Wine, other single barrel mash bills were in the $80-$90 range.
