Bulleit Rye Whiskey 70cl

A fantastic whiskey, great straight or with a mixer

My first foray into rye ended up being one of the best. I tried a few others but keep coming back to this one, it's got enough bite to keep you on your toes but between the spice and vanilla enough taste to make every sip enjoyable. I think I'll be making this a staple in my cupboard

The best rye I’ve ever had. Very hearty, very distinctive; I don’t think I’ll ever tire of it.

Bulleit is my favourite bourbon by far,just discovered rye whisky and Bulleit rye is a tad more spice along with ezra brooks the best value rye whisky

One of my favorites

I really enjoyed this rye whiskey. It`s one of the best I have tasted for the price! I think their bouron one is rather good too. It`s hard to find this whiskey on special offer as it sells so well. The rye is exceptional on this expression. I prefer it to the bouron one they do ... A classic Rye!

I love rye whiskey, and this one ticks all the boxes. I'd say the tasting notes are pretty accurate which is why last bottle of this didn't last long! A tad expensive here in the UK but worth it.

Like many drams, particularly American whiskies, fresh out of the bottle this is thin and harsh.
Give it time.
After breathing well and sipped at warm room temperature, it opens up, becomes soft, fragrant and sweet. There is still a lot of "heat" from the rye, particularly in the cheeks, but the tongue is kept busy and the aftertaste, while short, is pleasant. I tend to think of rye as a US alternative to pleated Islays.

For the price this is perfectly reasonable and while there is little complexity, the limited range of tastes are nice and "friendly".
In short, I like it. The final measure of the aftertaste actually has that "barley sugar" sweetness as Ballantine's.

This Rye Whiskey is delicious on it's own but it makes an absolutely fantastic old-fashioned. I use cane sugar syrup and orange bitters to make mine.

Really lovely, aromatic and spicy. Interesting. Very moreish: this is lovely, a top notch Rye whiskey. One of my absolute faves, and introduced me to Ryes.
