This expression consists of a rye whiskey fully matured in new American oak barrels. It is then finished in barrels that previously contained New Holland Dragon's Milk barrel aged stout. It is bottled at 88 proof.

Just a quick tasting note here. Had this at a friends house tonight. Didn’t really get a chance to nose this one but the palate was something incredibly different, and not in a good way. Basically it tasted like menthol cigarettes with some dill. Pine resin and various herbs. Don’t buy this, it’s gross
Now this is a weird rye. It's supposedly agreed on previous stout barrels, but the beer flavor that comes out is more like a pilsner on the nose. It takes the bite from the spice. It's just an odd, funky, acquired taste sort of rye.
Interesting contrast of sugar notes along with the rye spice. Dark cherry, floral notes can be found as well. I might prefer the bourbon but time will tell.
Has spicy rye notes on the nose, with a sweet caramel flavor. Very good.
I like New Holland’s Bourbon but their Rye is wonderful.
Spicy and sweet over a smooth caramel base
