Thread: Scotch/whiskey of the day

1792 Bourbon, slightly stronger at 93%, great for drinking neat in my opinion

Woody Creek Distillers 100% Colorado Rye in an Old Fashioned: Rye, Simple Syrup, Peychaud's Bitters, Lemon Twist.

You guys need to try Tap 40 if you like 100% Ryes. Affordable, and very spicy.

I just searched on the vinmonopolet website and we don't seem to have it in Norway. Any other rye recommendations?

Sorry, I'm getting my beers and whiskeys mixed up. Lot 40, not Tap 40.

I think I need to try this one. I love a pungent, spicy Rye.

Woodford Reserve Bourbon - neat

If you can find it James E. Pepper 1776 Rye is about the best rye that I've ever tried.
Cheers!

We don't have Lot 40 or James E Pepper here, but it looks like woodford reserve is available here. I'll give it a try one day.

I was drinking bells yesterday as part of a series I'm doing on cheap blended whiskies. My notes include things like stagnant pond, wet cardboard and burning plastic, but in all fairness the nose has much more to it than I was expecting. Spoiler alert: I won't be buying it again.

I concur, TC Rides turned me onto it and I just finished another bottle. Really hard to beat, but I am not an expert. If there is anything better for the price in a whisky/bourbon I am game! I can't drink carbonated any more and am trying to learn a new "drink". So far, I have yet to find a better whisky/bourbon (for me) than Woodford Reserve on the rocks.
