Has anyone ever tried this rye? I tried searching the old reviews, but I don't think there is one for this. Bottled at 46.5% ABV, no age statement, thoughts?

I sampled it at the distillery last year and liked it well enough, but personally I'd go for Dillon's rye if I was in the market for a 100% rye from a micro-distillery.

There's also a cask strength version of the Stalk & Barrel that I hear is remarkable. Never tried it though.

As for reviews, I think this one by @talexander is of this release: connosr.com/still-waters-stalk-and-barrel-…

And @JasonHambrey has one on his site: insearchofelegance.net/blog/2016/…

@OdysseusUnbound No, I have not tried this one. Have you ever heard of Old Potrero 18th Century Style Rye Whiskey ? This is a legendary rye whiskey. @Victor describes this as a walk on the wild side. It is made by Anchor Distilling in San Francisco. Hope you can grab a bottle of this epic booze from a shelf somewhere in Canada. I sure do.

I believe one of our members successfully returned a three pack of the individual grains, including the rye, insisting they (including the rye) ought not to have been sold...
