2020 advent calendar: Fruity , Rye bread on the nose. Pallet was spicy rye and drinks a little hot. Finish is spicy and warm, Chardonnay barrel finished doesn’t help this in my opinion.
About this bottle
Filibuster, based in Washington, DC (hence the name), is known for their cask finishes. In this case, young rye whiskey was first aged in new charred American oak as per regulation, then given a second maturation in French oak casks that once held Chardonnay.

Unique rye. No spice whatsoever. Ultra smooth with an interesting sweetness to it due to the white wine barrels it ages in...
the chardonnay cask helps lighten the harshness that rye can have. good to drink but doubt I will purchase bottle
Bourbon Advent calendar 2020 For a rye, not any bite. Not alot going on to drink by itself.
Smooth and sweet but misses on the flavor.
Pretty boozy
