- Episode 178. Yes, this is MGP. However, I believe it is a well done Rye. Young, but good pepper, sweetness and an interesting citrus or herbal note. I would watch the price as it tends to be priced higher, like a premium bottle. Have you tried James E. Pepper? What do you think? #whiskyfabric#whiskytube#whiskyneighbour
I really appreciate these reviews where you compare two similar drams!
Thanks. I enjoy them too!
The Brown sugars and clove sounds interesting as does the cherry and cola notes. Excellent breakdown my friend. I'm going with corn over Barley, or a little of both.
There certainly could be a little corn in their. Just thought they might be using malted barley to open up the mash. I liked this one.
I just opened my bottle of 1776 last night. Mine said aged at least 3 years on the back of the bottle. I have no issue with sourced whisky. I do like that their transparent about it. I found it a bit more in your face than lot 40 but an enjoyable rye for sure. Goes for 53 buck at the lcbo that includes taxes. Worth it in my opinion as long as you like rye
Interesting that your bottle says 3 and mine says at least 2 years. Still, I would agree this is a good rye for the price and a little more punchy than Lot 40. Cheers!
I’ve been eyeing this rye for a while, 53 bucks here in Ontario so not too bad. Thanks for the review!
It is still young, and has some of those grain/grass notes. Still, I like how those work with the pepper and a little red fruit. If you go for it, let me know what you think.
I have never seen this one on local shelves... I would probably buy it just to satisfy my curiosity.
I do not think it would blow you away, but it is a tasty young Rye.
I recently bought the barrel proof. I got it for an absolute bargain £31 ($50 Canadian). Mine came with a green wax seal but the cork broke when I opened it.
That is a steal, I hope you enjoyed it when you finally got in (I hate broken corks, but that is why I keep a bag of old tops!)
Another excellent set of tasting and nosing notes Jon, I opened a bottle of Centennial- Canadian 10 year old Rye which is $23.99 to drink along with you. It is only 40% so I am having it straight and I have a glass of water as accompaniment, on the nose it's brown sugar and oak taste is oak and pepper and the drink of water helps to cool the finnish.
Awesome. I found Centennial a little soft. Glad you picked out some pepper in there too. Cheers!
Hi Jon, how are? Very timely review for me, thanks. Thought about this brand but rare reviews and feedback day by day cancelled purchase. I probably buy it, but not this time.
I am doing well. Certainly a good decision to wait. I enjoy this, but it isn't worth chasing after. I hope you are doing well too.
I like their bourbon ok, but the rye doesnt work for me, never tried cask strength though. I currently have a bourbon and rye somewhere deep in my cabinet
What Rye do you enjoy? Do you like more grassy notes or more fruit and oak?
totally agree - too young and too expensive
Well, I think I like it a bit more than that and since I found it for nearly half the regular price, I can enjoy it!
Loved the comparison Jon. I've only had the barrel proof and I really enjoyed it. Would get it again in a heartbeat. Cheers buddy.
Thanks. The barrel proof is excellent IMO. Glad you have tried it too!
Whisky Neighbour it’s quite often on bargain here & when it is. It’s got to be picked up. Impressive stuff.
I paid 24.00 at Blackwell 50abv
Great price! I think it is certainly worth that.
I really enjoyed the Barrel Proof once you get passed the wall! Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it too!
Such an intense rye! Great review Jon!
Thanks. When I go for rye, I generally want it to be high volume!
Thank you for reminding me I bought one bottle last month and have not try it yet 1776
Let me know what you think when you open it up!
If it says "straight" rye whiskey and doesn't have an age statement, doesn't that mean it's at least 4 years old?
Well, that was my reaction. Except on the back it does say 2 or more years. Which negates the automatic 4 years from straight. Confusing.
Thanks for the review.
This is not my favorite at all.
Too much eucalyptus flavor me.
Certainly present as a flavor, but I still enjoy!
