Aged 30 years? Bottled at cask strength? Fun old timey label? Great price? From a great company with access to great whiskies? I’ll take it! Looking forward to trying this unusual @wmcadenheads offering. Cheers!
I’ve been hoping to come across this one for a long time. Finally found it! I love rye whiskeys, and I love heirloom grains that offer unusual flavors. And of course New Riff knows how to do things right, so, looking forward to giving this a go. Cheers!
