For sure, it has a bit more proof plus the high rye will give you spice notes that definitely can come across as bite.
Did it inspire you to try more ryes?

Well, when I was shopping for this I ran into a guy who kept talking up Ironroot Harbinger whiskey from Texas. I just wish it came in small bottles!
If you taste it, I hope you post about it. I've never had that one. It's a craft distillery.

...but I quit drinking completely about 10 years ago, because of much driving, paired with sports shooting at that time.

You should try not to do everything at once—then it'll work out.

I never tried shooting while driving
...but seriously: it was really not practical, I often drove on-demand medical interventions and such...
And, despite my origin, I never really liked alcohol. A sip of good wine, OK, but there are very few occasions lately, and drinking alone isn't "mine".

Looking to start off the holiday weekend here in the US with a bit of this tonight...I enjoy it- but probably won't restock it whenever the bottle is finished. Nice for a change of pace- but not really my favorite flavor profile...
The 1910 is my OF favorite, but I generally love double oaks.
I had my first drink in two months last night. Did a couple Daiquiris made with Smith & Cross and Real McCoy, blended. The spirits were blended, not the drinks. The first one used clarified lime juice, the second "fresh" lime.
Damn, I miss a good cocktail. Sadly, these didn't quite fit the bill. But it was still nice.

Had a take-2 of this at a different spot. Much more satisfactory experience. Smith & Cross and Probitas Daiquiris. Perfectly balanced and truly delightful to drink.I had my first drink in two months last night. Did a couple Daiquiris made with Smith & Cross and Real McCoy, blended.

Just had some good Shochu yesterday. Good stuff: 100 Years of Solitude

In the US, it is hard to get plain old Eagle Rare for MSRP. At its regular price (~$50), I think it is well worth it. But at the same time, I also could be happy drinking Buffalo Trace. I like the sweet style in these bottles, but am less of a fan of the Weller Wheaters.
