Filibuster Dual Cask Straight Rye Review
A Virginia rye from a craft producer, this whiskey has tons of character. Notes from the French oak wine cask finishing process hit you first, but are quickly followed by dill and black pepper, ensuring you know this is a rye whiskey you're drinking. There's great concentration of flavor, with baking spices building on the notes from the nose. A weighty texture coats the palate before a lingering rye-spiced finish. Excellent stuff!
