I've been enjoying Basil Hayden's Dark Rye lately. It's reasonably priced at $39 and is delicious.

Drinking Whistle Pig Piggyback 6yo lately. $49. Nice mix of heat and spice.

I bought a bottle of Old Forester Rye. Inexpensive and really tasty.

Have you tried the Rye white Lightening, no age release? Only WL I can drink, most others are too sweet.

JD Released the no age Rye, then followed it up with a2yr gently aged release. Followed by the final product and single barrel releases. I believe they still release all of these. I know I have seen the no age.


Neat to do a side by side tasting to taste the aging progress.

I like the fact that the Single Barrel release features a higher than normal rye content mashbill (70%, I believe) than many. It shows on the palate, which is both richly textured and spicy.
