Old Potrero, 18th Century Style Whiskey
Single Malt
100% rye malt aged in uncharred oak barrels
125.1 proof
When I was young I used to like whiskey but in recent years it's been strictly gin for me. Anchor Steam makes one of my favorite gins, Junipero, and they also make the whiskey above so I thought I would give it a try.
Unlike their beer I beleive their spirits are only available out west.
They have attempted to recreate the wiskey made in the early Americas. I bought a bottle a while ago from BevMo ($25?) and this thread inspired me to taste it again with a little water as recommended.
Conclusion: I'm not at all qualified to describe it's taste, it's not unpleasant, and it kind of grows on you.
