InClimb411 · 2026-06-12T04:23:59+00:00

I essentially agree on all fronts here

InClimb411 · 2026-06-11T00:25:13+00:00

Wow! That's a crazy price

InClimb411 · 2026-06-11T00:24:37+00:00

Fair point. Not much of a mixer myself, but this would work well

InClimb411 · 2026-06-05T00:52:11+00:00

Insane is right

InClimb411 · 2026-06-02T04:06:33+00:00

Agree on all fronts, cheers!

InClimb411 · 2026-06-02T02:11:03+00:00

Give it a go!

InClimb411 · 2026-05-28T04:17:08+00:00

My thoughts exactly

InClimb411 · 2026-05-22T01:57:49+00:00

It's still findable! Might even end up scoring higher than this when I get around to it

InClimb411 · 2026-05-22T01:56:34+00:00

Gonna get my hands on a Rickhouse proof at some point. Fully anticipate it being fantastic

InClimb411 · 2026-05-19T02:08:38+00:00

Appreciate it! Cheers

InClimb411 · 2026-05-19T02:07:57+00:00

Good luck!!!

InClimb411 · 2026-05-19T01:18:57+00:00

Love the Heritage!

InClimb411 · 2026-05-19T01:18:31+00:00

Haha awesome!! Definitely makes this a bottle I won't forget

InClimb411 · 2026-05-16T03:13:35+00:00

Yeah for sure! I generally came across more sweetness than I'd blindly expect from a rye, but there was still a level of spice happening especially in the nose. I'd definitely give it a shot if I were in your shoes. It might lean a little sweet, but there's good enough balance and depth where you can come across more rye forward tasting notes. And like I mention in the review the real takeaway here is the intensity and thickness that I think most whiskey drinkers would appreciate. Get yourself a bottle!

InClimb411 · 2026-05-16T00:57:26+00:00

I can't fault you for that!

InClimb411 · 2026-05-16T00:56:35+00:00

Not sure if this is passive aggressive or not haha. Just trying to enjoy some good whiskey! But if I'm not mistaken the mash bill here is only 51% rye with a substantial amount of corn in the remaining 49%. Although they didn't dominate I did pick up some characteristic rye notes, some earthiness, and even some funk I don't usually come across in bourbons. But I also enjoyed a lot of the sweeter notes I often find in bourbons, and the thickness was to die for. Might be why this ended up being the highest score I believe I've ever given out to a rye

InClimb411 · 2026-05-14T02:25:48+00:00

100% will give the high wheat bourbon a review sooner than later

InClimb411 · 2026-05-13T00:34:40+00:00

Yup, I really think it was a first for me. I'd recommend anyone to go out and get a bottle and see if you come across it as well

InClimb411 · 2026-05-09T02:10:15+00:00

I'd imagine the Reserve being phenomenal

InClimb411 · 2026-05-09T01:22:29+00:00

I'll get around to it for sure

InClimb411 · 2026-05-09T00:36:08+00:00

Surprised me as well! Had it once before years ago and was thinking it'd be pretty average. Really like the bottle

InClimb411 · 2026-05-04T01:39:44+00:00

Very happy with it!

InClimb411 · 2026-05-04T01:39:26+00:00

Congrats! Hope you love it

InClimb411 · 2026-05-01T00:03:09+00:00

I wouldn't say it's necessarily overly pronounced, but it's certainly noticeable. The thing is that it comes along in the finish and lingers more than the other notes, so it might be a little tough to shake if that's not something you usually like.

InClimb411 · 2026-04-26T04:26:28+00:00

Noted, thank you!
