  • Excerpt: Spicy, oily, hints of mint, with just a bit of vanilla from a month and a half in wood...which is where it fades, needing that barrel complexity. Catoctin Creek is making some nice, clean whiskey, a great start, and I do hope they're tucking some away for the long haul.

  • Excerpt: It's a bit thin, and runs hot, which is a sure sign its barrels were small and its nap time was short. If you're a fan of lighter ryes, you'll like it. But if you want something bigger and richer, this may not be for you.

  • Publication: Wine Enthusiast
  • Excerpt: The aroma is oaky and warm, while the drying palate is tinged with cocoa and lemon peel. It's soft and easy-sipping, with just enough peppery spice to keep it interesting.
