Thanks for the vid Josh & Erin. Have you two had a chance to try Rewood Empire - emerald giant cask strength? This dropped end of last year for $70. My favorite rye of 2022, and I had to bunker 3 bottles.
ОтветитьYou should review some Canadian ryes. Canada makes some great ryes.
ОтветитьPrideful Goat cask strength rye
ОтветитьI loooove WT101 rye (especially in a boulevardier), Old Overholt BIB (on the rocks), Catoctin Creek barrel select (thanks to one of my local stores), Old Forester rye, and (while it’s not under $75 in my state) Angel’s Envy rye with the money I saved on the previous bottles.
ОтветитьWoodinville Rye and when I bought it it, Woodinville Rye cask strength was less than $70. I like Redemption Rye. Dr Swinson's Rye. I liked Woodford's Rye as well. Old Forester Rye is on my next-buy-list. I recently had Stellum Bourbon and, while pricy, was impressed enough to try their Rye on principle alone.
ОтветитьTry New Riff Malted Rye! I love the Sagamore Double Oaked
Ответить1)Barrell seagrass
2)Rare breed Rye
3)Whistlepig piggyback
4)Rittenhouse Rye
5)Knob Creek 9 rye
I tried Sagmore Rye double oak, but the nose wasn’t strong enough to balance out the woody palette (Like oak oak, not toasted oak) but when I blend it with woodford double oak It becomes amazing because of woodford’s strong sweet nose.
Great list! No one else out there that’s consistently doing rye as well as Sagamore
ОтветитьI just saw a 750 of the Sagamore Double Oaked for 56 last night. If I wasn't buying a bottle of Lagavulin, I would have picked it up. I guess we get a better price since it is a Baltimore Company.
ОтветитьMy Top 5 Ryes are George Dickel, High West Double Rye, Dad’s Hat Straight Rye, Jack Daniels Single Barrel Rye, and Redemption Rye. New Riff Rye is very high on my “to try” list (I loved their Bourbon). Bulleit Rye is the only rye whiskey I’ve tried that I didn’t like. The others on the video I can’t find in my area.
ОтветитьNo particular order:
Sagamore Double Oaked Rye
Castle and Key Single Barrel Restoration Rye (2884)
New Riff Aroostook
Wilderness Trail Rya Maple Barrel Finish
George Dickle / Leopold Bros Three Chamber Rye
Highly recommend the Castle and Key if you get a chance to try it, and the New Riff Aroostook is very unique.
Totally agree with your comments about sagamore Rye. My first bottle was cask strength and I was surprised how good it was. Last week I was able to find the double oak and the rum finished. Can’t wait to try them all.
ОтветитьPikesville, Prideful Goat, Frey Ranch…..
ОтветитьGreat Video. The sagamore double oak is fantastic. Not a rye guy but love it. High west double rye is outstanding too
ОтветитьCheckout a rye called Breakout. $15 and crushable. Store manager pointed it out, I went ahead and tried it and man was I pleasantly surprised!
ОтветитьHow does the New Riff SiB compare to the Balboa Rye? I know the Balboa is only 100 proof, but still. What would you compare the New Riff SiB to?
I’m a big fan of the Stellum Black label rye, pricier but so good, tons of baking spices but add in some caramel as well. 😙🤌🏼
That sagamore is my favorite too because I love oak flavors in my bourbons. I didn't really like a lot of ryes until I had this one. So damn good.
ОтветитьI'm with you on the Old Forester Rye 100 and the Sagamore Rye Double Oak. I even held on to my empty Sagamore DO bottle because I'm going to use it for an infinity blend. I do plan on trying that Stellum Rye here soon though. Can't wait, and thanks for the push!
ОтветитьThe Sagamore Spirit Cask Strength is a very slow sipper…I think the proof almost overrides the flavor.
ОтветитьPikesville, Knob Creek, Rittenhouse, WT 101, and Elijah Brooks or George Dickel for mixing
ОтветитьI have heard so much good about the Sagamore the peer pressure is making me crack. Have to get one soon. Thx for the info - love me some Rye!
ОтветитьI love, love, love Rare Breed Rye. Added some of these to my list though...
Ответить1. Michter's
2. Middle West
3. New Riff Malted Rye
4. Rabbit Hole Boxergrail
5. Sazerac
Ryes are so interesting. Truly American whiskey. George Washington made white dog rye.
ОтветитьI always buy the 1.75 liter bottle of Bulleit rye and just keep refilling the 750 ml bottle I keep on my bar. Saves some money. (I do that with Wild Turkey 101 and Monkey Shoulder as well.) My favorite Ryes include Bulleit, Knob Creek 100 Proof, Balcones 100 Proof Rye, and Empire Ragtime Rye, 100 proof, finished in Applejack Barrels.
Ответить1. Russell’s Reserve Single Barrel Rye. 2. Pikesville Rye. 3. Rare Breed Rye. 4. Masters Keep Cornerstone Rye. Wild Turkey 101 rye. In that order
ОтветитьOld forester, wild turkey: rare breed, Pikesville, sagamore, New Rift. Thats my guess. We'll see....
ОтветитьWoodinville rye, michters come to mind
ОтветитьGreat video and the list of Ryes are fantastic! I agree that the Sagamore Ryes (all of them) are fantastic and especially the double oak. Maryland style Ryes are making a big comeback and I'm here for it! I never got to try the Stellum Rye and with this review, I'll have to get a bottle. Thanks again and Cheers!
ОтветитьNice list guys! Definitely going to pick these up over time!
ОтветитьThe one bottle I would add to your list is Rare Breed Rye. Otherwise, I love your list. Keep up the good work.
ОтветитьNot a bad list but kind of bloated with MGP sourced ryes. Bulleit, Sagamore, and Stellum all source from MGP and are likely the same mash bill. Clearly you enjoy MGP Rye but I'm surprised you didn't include some other bottles to make sure you mix it up a bit. I agree, Sagamore is fantastic. My favorite rye right now is New Riff Balboa but right behind it is a 9.5 year Sagamore store pick.
A couple good picks under $75 I would include are Baby Saz, Pikeville (nice 110 proof), and Willet Rye. Those three can be a little harder to find than the bottles in the video but are a great addition to a rye lineup. The next rye I pick up will be an Amburana finished Rye. Maybe like Koval Amburana Finished Rye or something similar. Feels like a no brainer finishing combo to bring out even more of that sweet and spicy profile of rye.
I'm surprised Wild Turkey 101 Rye isn't on the list. It's delicious and like $25 bucks. With that said, it doesn't quite rise to the status of "daily drinker" for me. It lacks a touch of balance, HOWEVER:
Then I got a bottle of WT Rare Breed Rye and found it good but I didn't consider it a daily drinker either. But something told me that a 50/50 blend of the two would fix both of them and was I right. NOW I have a delicious daily drinker that averages out about $45 bucks. I'm not kidding- try it. Delicious.
Great video, as always. I appreciate how often you give me an idea for the next whiskey I want to try. I’ll definitely be picking up the Sagamore Double Oak the next time I see it on the shelf.
ОтветитьI know I'm late, but pausing 1min in to say I think for the upper end of your scale, the Whistlepig Piggyback is HARD to beat! $55/fifth here in NC
ОтветитьWhat about Jefferson's Ocean Rye?
ОтветитьOld Overholt 114
Willett 4 year
Alberta Cask
Rare Breed Rye
Wild Turkey 101 Rye
(not necessarily in that order)
No Pikesville????
ОтветитьSagamore double oak is top shelf rye, can't be beat. Bullet is also great for the price. Good selection in this video, recommend all
ОтветитьI recently tried new riff rye 👍….a couple of my favorites are willett rye …. If you can find it .. the 6 yr old. And of course michter’s small batch and single barrel . I was fortunate enough to purchase a couple of cases a few years ago . By the bottle they were under 40.00
ОтветитьI am a big fan of the Old Forester, my favorite in this price range though is currently WhistlePig PiggyBack 100% Rye
ОтветитьI am a 75 year old newbie to the ryes and started with Knob Creek rye which is growing on me! I enjoyed your video! Thank You!
ОтветитьI'd definitely include the Stellum and Sagamore double oak, and maybe even the New Riff, but not the Bulleit or Old Forester. (Especially the Bulleit, which can be beat by so many MGPs it's crazy)
Plenty of others beat them both.
Pikesville definitely should be included. Woodford store pick ryes blow those two away too. Midway brand ryes(all finished) also. Rare Breed rye def beats them, with Wild Turkey 101 being roughly their equal. Redwood beats them too.
(IMHO)
This weekend, I made two Manhattans, my specs were Angostura bitters and Cocchi Torino, but I did one with OF 100 Rye and the other with Sagamore DO, I love Sagamore DO neat, but for my taste, OF 100 Rye made the better Manhattan which I found really interesting. Go figure, one's a great mixer the other is a great neat pour.
ОтветитьGreat list! If you want to consider something that breaks the mold for Rye, try a Texas Rye, like Balcones, Tahwahkaro, or Acre.
ОтветитьNo JD Single Barrel Barrel Proof?
Ответитьok.. before watching here is mine. hope i have 5.

ОтветитьOf the Rye in this video, have only had the Old Forester, and it's amazing. My go to Rye is Dickel, took a couple of times, High West double rye, Green River rye and was able to get Alberta Premium Cask strength rye, amazing rye, and for $29.99, bought 3 bottles, regular price at Binny's $69.99
