Almost everything to do with the Millstone 100 Rye Whisky, from Dutch experts Zuidam, is to do with the number 100. It's made with 100% rye grain, 100% small pot still distillation, matured for 100 months in 100% new American oak barrels and bottled at 100° Proof (50% ABV, but we'll let it slide this time). It's a bit like that movie, The Number 23, except about the number 100 and tasty rye whisky, not Jim Carrey.
Deliciously fragrant with orange blossom, roasted lemon and a touch of thyme. Hints of brown sugar sweetness.
More lemon notes develop on the palate, now paired with pine. Cardamom spiciness. Maybe even a touch of Fino?
Waxy fruit and another kick of cardamom.

Tried for the first time this evening and immediately ordered a bottle. Amazing stuff, so sweet it's like syrup, and incredibly smooth. Looking forward to drinking a lot more.
I've traveled the world and sampled just about every rye whiskey there is. By far, this rye stands out as the best of the best. It is spicy and smooth. A fantastic sipping rye. Too good to mix but it makes any Manhattan superb.
Puts most US Rye's to shame!!
