Review: Bulleit Rye despite being 95% rye does not seem as “spiced” as a lot of other ryes tend to be. Because of this I feel like it is a great intro Rye and makes for a fantastic cocktail. Add to that it’s decent proof point and price and you have a bottle that has a constant home on my shelf.
My Rating: Stock it!
May the miles you hike be filled with wonder and the glasses you raise be filled with whiskey.
Cheers!
Rating scale:
-Spit: Don’t bother with this one. If a friend gives you a dram of it, are they even your friend?
-Shoot: Good enough to get you drunk.
-Sip: Tasty enough to enjoy neat or on the rocks.
-Stock: I’d recommend keeping a bottle on hand.
