Re: Bourbon Drinkers - Which Style Do You Prefer Wheated or Rye?
I don't know if they are wheated or rye, never paid that much attention to them.
Woodford Reserve Eagle Rare Buffalo Trace Elijah Craig 12yr old (special for HiTime Wines) Ridgemont Reserve 1792 These are the ones I like, so are they wheated or rye? Peace of the Lord be with you. |

If they are not, give me some examples of wheated bourbons. To me, the normal Makers Mark is nasty, not smooth at all. Of course, that is simply make taste/take on it. If that is wheated, and if some of the others which I have tasted and found that I don't like (because I don't find them smooth) are wheated, then could we assume the smoothness is dependant upon individual palate? Peace of the Lord be with you. |

Yes, taste is very subjective and different people, when tasting the same product, can perceive different flavor profile. However, it is commonly suggested by many bourbon drinkers that wheated bourbons do often offer a slight sweetness of the finish. |

I find the rye Bourbons that I like to be smoother and slightly sweeter, especially in the finish, than I do the wheated ones. Interesting! Again, as I've said with so many other things, you have to satisfy your own palate. If you don't like it, don't try to please someone else's palate. Peace of the Lord be with you. |

Obviously there isn't a correct answer except for, "I'll have another".:dr
Rye definitely dominates the numbers, but with Buffalo Trace keeping the Pappy and Weller lines alive wheated bourbon has surged. I've pondered it myself before but no clear cut answer for me. I think this is one time I don't mind just sitting on the fence, either way I fall I land on bourbon. |
Re: Bourbon Drinkers - Which Style Do You Prefer Wheated or Rye?
I also hadn't considered whether I prefer wheat or rye. Although I do love nearly all the bourbons I have had the pleasure to taste
Also for generic info, what are the standards of Beam and Evan Williams? Wheat or Rye? Those are normally all I can afford as I am a poor grad student :D |

Bulleit or Bulleit Rye.. They are probably my favorite go to bourbons right now. The Rye has a floral quality about it. The Regular one has a cinnamon spice and taste to it.

Re: Bourbon Drinkers - Which Style Do You Prefer Wheated or Rye?
Definitly rye. Bulleit is my go to. I love the Sazarac also (BTAC and regular production).
