Have you experienced a whiskey from a three chamber still?  If you haven’t we recommend you find a bottle of Leopold Bros.

Our good friend Todd Ritter handed us a bottle of the Leapold Bros Three Chamber Rye  to try. Todd is one of our podcast listeners and a member of our private facebook group The Bourbon Roadies.

Leopold Bros. painstakingly re-engineered a Three Chamber Still from old manuscripts and grew the heritage grain Abruzzi rye that was favored by Pre-Prohibition distillers to resurrect this one-of-a-kind whiskey.

We hope you enjoy Jim and Mike’s review.    Be sure to catch the podcast episode on your favorite platform, for more information.   Cheers!

Tasting Notes: Leapold Bros Three Chamber Rye

Vital Stats: Released in 2021, this bottled-in-bond straight rye whiskey is 4 years old. It has a Mash-bill that is 80% Abruzzi Rye, 20% Leopold Floor Malt. It is 100 proof and an MSRP of $250

Appearance: Golden honey rye whiskey in a standard whiskey bottle with the tulip neck.

Nose: Rich honey with herbal chamomile tea and cream that leads to a nice spice. Light fruit that makes it have a pleasant sweetness.

Palate: Oily with that covers honeycomb cereal and spicy ginger snap cookies. The herbal spice with flowers. This covered the mouth with a silky sweetness that reminds us of a cantaloupe. White pepper corn on the back end makes it amazing.

Finish: Extra long with a nice hug.

Overall: Simply amazing for a 100 proof whiskey that we both rank as our top rye whiskey. Even with the price it’s still a buy for both of us. This will challenge your palate and has been expertly crafted to help you develop your whiskey experience.
