    James E Pepper 1776 Rye

    I fell in love with this bottle as soon as I tasted it at the distillery. It doesn't disappoint. I do like the Barrel proof a little more than the 100 proof. It just seems to pop more in the flavor dept. While the 100 proof is also flavorful, smooth and tasty, I prefer the Barrel proof.
