The Senator "Filibuster of Flavor" 7 Year Old Barrel Proof Straight Rye Whiskey The Prime Barrel Pick #61

Our first "Senate Struck" selection of Senator's rye was one of our favorite picks and the most-talked-about bottle in our community. That bottle had everything you could want in the perfect rye whiskey. So we knew the sequel needed to be equally good, if not better. Unlike our senators (and politicians), we did almost the impossible - found a barrel worthy of the successor title. This bottle is a year older, has loads of flavor, and - dare we say - it might challenge the original as the best Senator Rye yet.

• Palate: Peppery maple bacon, smoky sweetness, 
• Finish: medium and long, moderate heat that transitions to lingering sweetness of pancakes and syrup
