    Willett for me, Negroni for the wife.
    Did you ever get opportunity to try the Pikesville rye?
    I have; higher proof whiskies (and I think that was 110-115) can be hit or miss for me.  I wasn’t a huge fan of it straight, it made a great Manhattan, but at its price point I couldn’t justify getting another for mixing.
    I guess it is 50 bucks now. I don’t think it used to be over 40. 🤷🏼‍♂️  The Rittenhouse rye is very similar and half the price. 
    Usually around $60 here.  I'll check out the Rittenhouse and Knob Creek; with rye I've generally just been defaulting to Bulleitt since I generally just use them in manhattans.

    Really liked the Elijah Craig rue for the price. Like $25-30 for a 750

    I much prefer the older offering I think the 6yr. That said, more than adequate for cocktails. 🥃

    While I don’t have a spirit to share at the moment, the series “The Heist” on Netflix, their 3rd ‘story”, is pretty neat.

    It’s my favorite brewery in Asheville, if only for the giant Tom Selleck devotional.
