Hudson Manhattan Rye

I enjoy the vanilla oak grain in this little no. Cork stopper fell to pieces on its first removal and on inspection the poor quality and total lach of any "craftsmanship"I am not surprised. I would never buy a second bottle @ uk prices.

Its nice to drink but its not as spicy or flavorsome as the hype made me believe it should be, it is smooth thou with very delicate woody notes (they are gone the minute you add water let alone a mixer). Pleasant but for the price i want a lot more woody vanillas and spice, basically way over priced in the uk
but then i mixed some with haven hills mellow corn and BANG the perfect bourbon

This rye is way to rough aroung the edges. Compared to Mitchners or Dickel it really rastes like moonshine

I got this for my birthday and I let it sit in my cabinet for awhile because I generally don't prefer rye's. I pulled it out to make a Manhattan and WOW it was the smoothest Manhattan I'd ever had. That led me to trying it neat and I must say it's amazing. Very sweet and smooth up front and then kicks in with a crazy good spice at end that hangs on. Do yourself a favor and splurge for this Rye.

I love everything Tuthilltown puts out, especially their whiskeys under the Hudson name. The Manhattan Rye is my favorite Rye that I've had so far. Spicy, yet not hot. Mellow, yet flavorful. Lots of vanilla, caramel, and a little pepper. It's fantastic.

lovely levels of spice backed up by sweetness from the corn and barrel. ridiculously supple, sipping dram.
when we finally get the larger, cheaper bottlings over here i will drink litres of the stuff, but for now, little out of my budget...

Took me a while to appreciate the nose. I get cut acrylic, polished wood, with an undertone of fermenting grass(?). An initial acidic bite on the tongue, with a fantastic oily texture. Fantastic depth of flavour. Spearmint and dark maple syrup to earmark a few from the below reviews.
If I get this at the US price, I'll definitely be purchasing more. A little pricey in the UK.

VERY good rye but, at such a high price, it makes a Manhattan prohibitively expensive for your average cocktail bar. Definitely one for the home collection though. Crazy good.

Seriously, great stuff. I have had many single malts, some very expensive, but nothing compares. I really love this stuff. I never thought a great whiskey could come from the colonies. Its like a mouth full of cinnamon and spearmint marshmallows with hints of smoke and wood. This is the only thing I look forward to when I visit the states.

Feisty, but not too bold. The funky rye spiciness is actually more powerful on the nose than in your mouth. Oily mouthfeel, but not too resinous. Lots of dessert-like flavors throughout the palate and finish, mostly maple, cinnamon and allspice. A nice dram, but so very overpriced! Try to buy this one in the USA if you can - it's less than USD$40 a bottle over there.
