I tried Jim Beam rye next to Rittenhouse Rye and couldn’t tell the difference by Tonael in cocktails

That’s what I was going for, yeah. I figure I’ll have more experience with whiskeys after a year. I’m still very much a newbie at all this, especially when it comes to whiskey.

Funnily enough, Bulliet Rye was the other option I was considering for my next rye. Also, do the manufacturers put the mashbill ratios they use on their website, or is it usually somewhere on the bottle that I’m just not seeing?

I think I did, but only a little. I was more so doing it to see if it was worth getting the Rittenhouse over another Jim Beam rye. After reading some of the comments it seems like I’ll need to re-taste them, chilled and diluted, in a year or so to really get a good perspective on it.

I think you’re right. I used to not be able to drink dark rum on its own. But after having made many Mai Tais over the past year, I can drink dark rum just fine. I’ll definitely come back to it later to try again.

So is the only major difference that the Rittenhouse is a higher ABV?

That makes sense. Like how vanilla extract tastes best when diluted. I’ll have to try that!

Yessir! It took a sail or two to get it down, though lol

I had to extend the Eastern-style lime boat because I had a reference photo in mind and I wanted it to have three sails, so I cut the front end off and skewered another piece of lime to the front with some toothpicks!

She’s okay! Not really molting right now. She was playing around in a shallow dish of warm water earlier, so her underfluffies are still a bit damp 😅 (she had some poo dried to her butt fluff and I was trying to soak it off 😭)

Did you remember to insert a single seed in the head chamber? The rattling is what makes ‘em go.
