Found a Rye Whiskey That I Really Like
Called Roaming Man, made in small batches and small bottles. It is pretty darn smooth, and while it has a little bit of a bourbon sweetness (which I don’t tend to care for) it doesn’t have that typical rye “hotness” to it. I like it 👍🏼

Really no heat at all. A very smooth pour.

I was pleasantly surprised by Jack Daniels rye. And I quite enjoy Redemption High Rye bourbon.

50 bucks for 375ml makes it a reach as an everyday pour

Absolutely. But it sure is nice for a special occasion. Like the day after tornadoes went just north and another just south of our neighborhood.

Some are just better than others is all. |
