Old Fashioned made with Templeton Rye.
Never heard of it. Give it a shot. Is it from Kentucky?Anyone ever tried Jefferson's Ocean Bourbon? It's on sale this wk at a good discount & I'm thinking about buying a bottle. I've never had any & can't find anyplace where I can buy a dram.

I have had the standard JW Blue. Its nothing special, since at that price, you can pick up a few really good single malts.Or how about the Johnnie Walker Blue Label Year of the Ram that Clayton Kershaw of the MLB Los Angeles Dodgers just gifted to every member of the NFL Los Angeles Rams @ $249 per, + tax?

I've had JW Blue before also & as you say there is better whisky at that price point. What makes "Year of the Ram" so much more expensive is the commerative blue bottle. Did you read what Kershaw spent on those 200 bottles?I have had the standard JW Blue. Its nothing special, since at that price, you can pick up a few really good single malts.
From KY but aged at sea. I'd like to drink it a bit before deciding whether to buy a bottle or not. I have a feeling it might be heavy on the spice.Never heard of it. Give it a shot. Is it from Kentucky?

During Happy Hour tonight I drank several drams of Sauza Tres Generaciones Tequila. It's an Anejo & supposed to be Sauza's best but I was not too impressed. If I was served it again sometime I wouldn't run away, but I wouldn't buy it again.
"Aged at sea". Sounds gimicky.From KY but aged at sea. I'd like to drink it a bit before deciding whether to buy a bottle or not. I have a feeling it might be heavy on the spice.
It's a bourbon so it's not competing with Islay. It may have a bit of the sea air & sea salt taste from the casks like some Islays do. I just think it will be more spicy than what I like."Aged at sea". Sounds gimicky.
They don't need to compete with Islay.
