Castle & Key Single Barrel Restoration Rye (barrel 4301)

I think I like the regular Restoration Rye (2023 batch 2) just a tad more from this single barrel, but its close. The blended version has more nuance and better flavor; a credit to the blender. This barrel isn't bad though, just lacks ever so slighty in flavor. A decent offering. Slight pepper notes. A bit hotter. Worth the $75 though.
