Peerless Double Oak Rye

The nose is rich with vanilla, caramel, burnt coffee and toasted pipe tobacco. The palate hits with a buttery and oily mouthfeel. Pepper and cinnamon start a journey that moves into other baking spices, toffee and a bit of a bitterness on the sides of the tongue. The finish lasts forever with tannins, tobacco and burnt sugar. Its a strong, in your face rye thats loads of fun to experience As this bottle has aged and opened up, the nose has gained a sweet vanilla shortbread quality and the palate has a minced meat pie flavor of stewed raisins. Gets better with age!

Batch 6 Aroma - Sweet brown sugar, candied fruits, toasted marshmallow, rye spice (pepper). Taste - Everything transfers from the nose to the palate but then some. Everything comes more amplified. Rich sweet notes (again brown sugar, candied fruits) mixed with rye notes (pepper, touch of mint). The oak presence really comes through on the finish along with vanilla notes. Touch of rye spice on the finish as well. Overall - Really nice complexity and very long finish. Price seems fair

Received a sample from a friend. Glass: Glencairn, rested 15 minutes. Color: Dark amber. Nose: Dark fruits and some minty notes. Palate: Thick mouthfeel with cinnamon and baking spice. Finish: Long and very warm. Splash: A strong minty note appears. Overall: 9.5/10 - This is a winner of a rye. All of the classic notes are present and this would stand up to ice or a mixer. A strong contender for my favorite rye, period.

Nose - deep, rich nose, first thing that pops in my mind is coffee bean. Vanilla extract and big oak influence Taste - brown sugar sweetness mixed with dark chocolate bitterness. barrel char with tannins. Long finish but a touch on the bitter side A delicous DO rye that’s held back a touch by some bitter tannin flavors. Still, a top tier rye!

Not sure on why the hype on this eapecially for the price. $115+tax i was expecting to be blown away. Its good but not blow hour mind good. As others have aaid i may need to juat get the Sagamore double rye to compare because if its only $55 i can live with that no way im paying that much again for a mediocre/good bottle.

Popped the cork on this to celebrate my son’s first Father’s Day. Amazing stuff. Beautiful amber color, fantastic nose, viscous mouthfeel and wonderfully flavorful. Nice warming finish closes things out. Absolutely one of the best whiskeys I’ve tried. I’ll be picking this one up every chance I get! Purchased 3/29/23
