“I don’t know what this is...”

Over the years, I have tried many, many whiskies. Unlike beer, when it comes to whisky I want to try every single one of them. And I love Australian whisky – Timboon, Sullivan’s Cove, Hellyers Road... it’s all good.

Now, white rye isn’t whisky but it sure does smell like it. But taste-wise? Not really. If anything, it tastes like a bourbon-vodka blend...

I don’t much care for it.

It’s actually left me quite confused as to how to describe this drink. Going in, I was as excited as a school girl thinking I may be about to try a favourite new spirit but I was thoroughly let down. I love spirits and in particular those made locally, so I hope Archie Rose’s gin is better.

Would I buy it again? $90? No.
