The best price/value ratio in my mind is "baby Sazerac" a.k.a. 6 year old Sazerac rye, but I've heard it's hard to get in a lot of places. Rittenhouse 100 is also a good rye at a good price point. If you're looking to spend money, Thomas Handy Sazerac barrel proof rye is fantastic. The previously mentioned Templeton is also great if you can get your hands on it.
- tptacek 16y agoI have nothing to add to this. One of the nice things about rye is that it's cheap (for now); avoid Old Overholt and you're going to do just fine.
- rubashov 16y agoOld Overholdt is perfectly palatable. I don't think it's worth knocking.
