Baby Saz, rye at first sight
Hey guys. How’s it going?
It’s the weekend and I am treating myself to this lovely Sazerac Rye ππ» ππΊπΈπ₯
I paired it with one of my favorite sticks, the Flor de Copan Monarcas from Honduras ππ»ππ³π¨ this will make a great Saturday evening ππ₯π¨.
Here is my review of the Sazerac Rye:
Nose: Lemon zest and citrus followed by rye black pepper. Caramel, peaches, cinnamon and a hint of fresh pears.
Palate: Crème caramel up front, sweet fruit followed by a subtle rye spice with cinnamon and a hint of oak.
Finish: Medium, crisp and dry. Warm nutmeg and oak lingers a bit.
It’s quite a tasty rye whiskey, aged 6 years and 90 proof. It’s more commonly known as “Baby Saz”. I quite like it π.
People used to ask me: “what’s your favorite rye?” and until now I didn’t really have an answer, as I don’t usually drink rye, so I used to answer “I don’t know, I’m not much of a rye guy” but now, I must say, “the Baby Saz is quite good” π
What’s in your glasses this evening? π
What rye whisky cocktails do you know and like with rye whiskey?
This will work great in a Manhattan as well, will post something on this soon, so stay tuned π
Cheers! π₯β¨π₯.
