The 100; bonded. I've had the 80 and I liked it. A bit lighter then I usually prefer, but it was good. Probably a good starter for someone newer to spirits with the lower proof. With the 100 I let it sit for a minute after I pour a glass to let the ethanol escape the rim and then dig in. It has a rich sweet and spicey taste.
At some points it seems so rich I could image putting in on pancakes. Don't think I will, but, there are moments of a thick syrupy molasses thing going on. I think the best part about drinking a rye is getting a good picture of what rye brings to the taste of bourbon.
I went out and picked up another bottle. I'll probably grab a couple more after Christmas if they're still on the shelf.
