  • The gentlemen review a unique rye and compare it to a previous, higher proof in which they found "black loam soil" notes.
    Big thanks to Tom Eberle for the bottle and Patron Saint William Schappert for the benevolent restock. Cheers ya MBs!

      Purcellville is one of my favorite VA towns. Market Burger across the street from Catoctin Creek is one of my favourite home in the wall eateries.

    Just got back from a visit to Virginia while on a trip to visit fam around my old stomping grounds. A stop in to Catoctin Creek in Purceville was a must do. Had a nice visit to their tasting room and grabbed some bottles including these two. Now that I have several of them and had a chance to enjoy a bit, I LOVE the 92 as probably the best rye I've had or it could the the Virginia bias in my blood. Even at that, damn good rye! Just wish it wasn't an 8 hour drive away.

    I'm hoping to visit Catoctin in a couple weeks when I go down to visit my 99yo Grandma. I grew up in this part of Virginia and have heard great things about their whiskey. They have a maple finish barley malt that's supposed to be awesome as well. I'm not sure what's going on in Va with the virus though. I should come home with a basket of bottles if luck be with me.

Unfortunately they were out of the maple finish rye but brought home a half dozen of the Roundstones and some of their Brandy's as well and enjoyed a tasting flite. There's a wall of windows in the tasting room that look out into the distilling room, very cool for my first trip to one of these. Truly a family size operation with super friendly folks.
