Wolves Whiskey Collaborates With Willett
On The Rye Project Volume One Whiskey
,
The Rye Project is Wolves’ first product offered into traditional distribution. Volume One is in collaboration with Willet Family Estate. The Rye Project is anchored by a very low-content rye whiskey distilled in Indiana and aged for 6 years in new American oak. No barrel finishes, no gimmicks. Wolves aims to deliver straightforward and balanced expressions of the best Rye in the world, in a low-rye format.
Upon Acquisition, the barrels were sent to Sonoma County for further aging. Then, Wolves and Willet Master Distiller, Drew Kulsveen, selected barrels of 7 and 6 year straight Rye whiskey from the Willet Family Estate reserve.
The custom cork top was inspired by the knob of a baseball that is a family heirloom of Jon Buscemi, while the label was created in partnership with a bespoke wine label maker in Sonoma County.” — 2 years ago

Buffalo Trace Distillery
Sazerac Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey
How does anyone not hoard (regular) Sazerac at ~$25?!
Incredibly smooth, great sweet note to the finish. Again, why haven't I not been buying this for years...?
(BTW Kirkland Bourbon at $30 is worth the price of admission, earthy oak note on the palate is quite similar to Buffalo Trace.)
Counter-Clockwise from top left:

Petit Verdot 2015
Shockingly pure and elegant! A touch rustic, this western MD grown PV is a totally spot on for varietal correctness! It’s not the most luxurious build, but the flavors are just beautiful. Purple everything ;) Hat tip — 4 years ago
Knob Hall Winery
Reserve Cuvée Josephine Merlot Blend 2014
The form factor yields a more mature and balanced offering than that of the N 39. Would not be disappointed having this as a budget wine at a restaurant – stays in its lane and has no harsh/offputting elements. It’s main drawback is it’s lack of nuance and sophistication — 5 years ago

What great and well balanced whiskey. Everything you want from bourbon. Cherries galore, oak tannin, some dried herbs, hint of chocolate. Lovely — 3 months ago
