This week on Bourbon Bytes, I’m breaking down one of the biggest trending topics in bourbon right now — recent news and rumors surrounding Green River’s master distiller.
What’s actually confirmed? What’s speculation? And what could it mean for the future of the brand?
Then, I dive into a full review of the brand-new Sazerac Full Proof Rye Whiskey from Sazerac.
Buffalo Trace fans have been waiting for a higher-proof version of this classic rye — but does it actually deliver?
I cover:
•
The latest Green River updates and what we know so far
•
Nose, palate, and finish of Sazerac Full Proof Rye
•
How it compares to standard Sazerac Rye
•
Whether it’s worth buying at MSRP
