Review:
Christmas is coming!! Do you have your gifts and bottles ready?!
The No. 4 Westchester Rye Whiskey comes from Still the One Distillery which is in Port Chester, NY. Established in 2009 they started with Vodka created from honey, then gin, and now whiskey. Still the One is a complete distillery with everything created and bottled at the distillery.
No. 4 whiskey is 100% rye (grown locally), aged for one year in American Oak barrels at Char 4, and is bottled at 90 proof. The char level is where the “No.4″ originates.
Other whiskey expressions are:
- 914 Bourbon Whiskey
- No. 3 Wheat Whiskey
- 287 Single Malt Whiskey
- 9A Single Malt Whiskey
- Rt. 1 Single Malt Whiskey
The No. 4 Rye Whiskey has a very nice rye spice flavor which is upfront and well balanced. Like most Rye’s I find the spice flavor profile is best enjoyed in a cocktail such as a Manhattan or Old Fashioned. I will be making a point to get to the distillery soon to taste all the expressions.
Priced around $55 and very good for a cocktail.
