I love rye whiskey and want to buy a really great bottle of it for special occasions. I’ve had Angel’s Envy rye and loved it, but want to know of others that I haven’t tried/maybe lesser known. Since it’s for special occasions, $100-$200 price range is fine.

    100 to 200 dollars for rye gets you top shelf (if any of it can be considered that good) in Canada. Where are you?

        Personally I go with scotch if I want good whiskey. I find barrel aged whiskey to be better.

            Well, calzones are just folded over pizzas…

            And as rye is a whiskey I did give a recommendation.

              And 7up and orange crush are both sodas, but they are still different flavor categories.

                  Oh nice, someone that can’t even comprehend the obvious metaphor I was using to show how stupid your response was. Guess it wasn’t just the response.

                  I’ll make it dumber for you: If someone asks for a cola recommendation, and you waltz in and say you like ginger ale… People are going to call you out, just like they did here.

                    Rye and scotch are closer in taste profile than coke and orange. Which is why i called it a chidlike taste profile.

                    I’ll make it easier for you. You got upset because I wasn’t exclusively talking about rye and that hurts your pedantic brain.
