Rittenhouse straight rye 100proof.
Cinnamon and vanilla custard. Lots of soft spices mingles in palate, and a light spicy lingering finish. Very smooth for 50%

Not the best brand I'm sure buy the big 1.5 liter bottles where on sale for $18.00 and at that price I thought it wouldn't hurt to fill the barrel with.
Into a heavyweight today.. Aberlour A'Bunadh.. this is batch 63, and comes out of barrel at a powerhouse 61%, or to Americans, 122 proof.
Spanish Oloroso casks galore and its very much christmas cake time.. tbh it needs a bit of water, but surprisingly not that much.
Superb.

edit... powerful stuff and quite addictive.. i will try to keep it for special
chocolate eh.. yes ive had dark choc before but not so powerful as you got... the scotch im sure will improve a fair bit in your barrel..Quote:

I put 2 liters of Carlyle in the barrel, To improve on it some.
I got a big jug of blended Islay scotch, as it is no longer imported so it was really,really cheap .
And a bottle of Bottled in Bond Jim Beam.
grant, feel free to comment if you know of these scotches. I know they are the shelf closest the floor but sometimes even budget brands can be very enjoyable.
