Lot 40 Rye Whisky

An enjoyable rye whiskey that makes a great neat nightcap. Tastes of rich dried fruit with a peppery aftertaste.

Excellent Rye, I have leaned more towards Ryes for quite a while now and this one doesn’t disappoint. Picked a bottle up from a shop in Chester on a whim.
Came on here to see the reviews after tasting it and I agree with such positive views on this Rye.
Taste etc I can’t add to what others have said, all I can add is that you should not miss this if you like Rye or are just starting off with Ryes.

Tasted this at a recent whisky festival and bought a bottle.
I’ve always liked rye whisky and this one doesn’t disappoint.
Sweet, caramel and floral with the distinctive rye aroma and finish.
If you’ve never tried a rye you must buy a bottle and be in for a treat.

This amazing rye can be enjoyed by sipping it neat right out of a Glencairn glass. Delicious rye notes on the nose and palate. Immediate toasted toffee notes and hints of dark fruit coat your mouth with a nice dry finish.

Perfect base for a good quality cocktail that doesn’t break the bank. On its own it stands head and shoulders above anything else in this price range

This was my first rye and it did not disappoint. Loved it and I killed the bottle far too quickly, so another bottle will be on order soon.

Picked this out on a whim. Growing up in Canada, around so called “Canadian Rye” (which is NOT Rye), I always passed it by. The more pours I have of this, the more I discover in it, and the more I love about it. With a heavy cooking spice that reminds me of family dinners of my youth, with a following brown sugar and vanilla, and ending with a pepper spice and slight tannin dryness. The sweetness and pepper lingers long, and leaves me wanting for more. The only thing I would like more of is a citrus orange peel note, which is there, I just would like more of it.

Im usually a Bourbon lover for vanilla and dark fruit, and scotch lover for the peaty smoke and fruitiness, but I may be visiting this bottle for a good long while.

So different from what I think of as rye (American, particularly MGP)! Such caramel, toffee... if I had known sooner, it would have been a regular purchase for years. Now, to get my hands on that cask strength version...

Well worth a try. High end Canadian whisky is laughably underpriced and those of us who’ve tried Lot 40 knows it represents typically good value.

Really fantastic whisky, peppery, oaky, cinnamon, honey. Lovely.

Recommended by a whiskey collecting friend. Beautiful dark gold almost amber color. Very soft on the nose but with nice honey, vanilla and cinnamon aromas. Palate is also reminiscent of honey and vanilla but with a nice pity accent, something not all that common in ryes. The finish has that cinamon spiciness typical of rye whiskeys.
