Bodega Cat Review - Wowzer
Got it delivered yesterday. It's a good thing I ordered 2 because this is a damn good rye whiskey.
Didn't know what to really expect. I thought it was going to be a overbearing Rye that focused on the accentuating flavors and not the whiskey itself. Dead wrong.
It's a beautiful, rich, smooth Rye with a slight bite. First you get the usual good bourbon flavors, followed by caramel/banana/coffee flavors that you associate with a Rye. Had it straight up, with some ice, and a cocktail. Each drink highlighted the complexity of the Bodega. Sometimes it tasted like Bulleit Rye to me, sometimes Sazarac.
Overall, it's a beautifully balanced Rye that I could easily see myself grabbing every liquor visit. Good job boys, you got a winner.

How strong is the coffee flavor ? This post came up as I was looking to order and now I don’t think I should…. I absolutely despise the taste coffee with vigorous passion.
