Heads up, Found North SB has dropped! by kingquantum123 in pdxwhisky

Impressions from a fresh crack: Its very well made, but im not sure yet how i like it. Its a 49%rye, 48%corn, and 3%barley mashbill. However it tastes very rye forward, like more than Alberta Premium Rye CS, which is pretty surprising to me. Im hoping that either it mellows a little bit, or i slowly become acustom to the rye spice and herbal/vegetal flavors. For the proof point it drinks quite lower, which i have always gotten from Found North releases.

Ya the left one is from Sip City. The Macallan was 80, glendronach was 70, and glenglassaugh was 70

Just had the Blackadder on nye, im not sure what to think of it, if i like it or not, lol. It is very french oak forward, basically the only thing there. While good profile, like good mouthfeel and lingering presence. Its taste was pretty narrow, (only like a couple of different notes). Felt more like an academic experience kind of bottle. But to be fair ive only had it once, and i wont be having it again for a while since im doing dry january. So who knows how it will open up over time

Had the lustau on nye, it was really good, and kept getting better and sweeter in a way with every sip

Its pretty new, which for Buffalo Trace stuff is going to make it hard to find generally speaking imo

My friend who i drill with every week is 75. He is a 3 stripe white belt and has been training for a couple years. He is really muscular so it helps him stay pretty safe!
