Rittenhouse Straight Rye Bottled-In-Bond Review
Pouring a deep amber hue, this bottled-in-bond rye from the Heaven Hill distillery serves a heady mix of charred oak and spice on the nose. The palate is lively, with a robust depth of flavor that makes it ideal for cocktails. It's no wonder, therefore, that Rittenhouse has long been a go-to option for bartenders. Try it in a Manhattan or Boulevardier.
