In Reply to: RE: Not my experience - I mean being influenced by price - with rye whiskeys. posted by carcass93 on April 15, 2014 at 13:33:36
I'm more a Scotch person and don't buy much Bourbon . But I'm from Pennsylvania and I heard about the Michter distillery and that there would be no more beyond what was in the barrels and bottles. So when I found some a decade ago I bought 3 bottles of 16 year old and one 20 year old - good stuff, elegant almost like a great cognac but more soul.
Follow Ups:
It was an OK-to-good whiskey, main issue being oak overpowering every other subtle taste. Nowhere close to its price of $40 a bottle, considering alternatives that are available at $25-30.
Agree with the assessments of Whistlepig, Bulleit and Rittenhouse. Builleit Rye is a particularly good value. Look into Eagle Rare- another good value Bourbon.
Do not care for Michters at all.
Best,
Ross
... I decided to scratch them all from my shopping list.
Seems like Whistlepig is one of the best examples of what's available - and that means I'm not interested.
