These annual Westward Milestone releases ain’t cheap, but they’re SO unique and SO GOOD. I took my time with this final pour, and in a glass that kinda went with the bottle. 😊 Cheers! At uncorking I found this small batch blend of 8-to-10-year MGP bourbon to be pretty familiar and straightforward. But then on the second pour a few days later I noticed a very decadent syrupy vanilla note come on strong, elevating the experience substantially. Gold star to @klwines for nailing it! Cheers! New notes on RITTENHOUSE BOTTLED IN BOND SINGLE BARREL aged a lucky 7 YEARS. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on an older than usual outing of this classic rye. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
