Savage & Cooke Lip Service Straight Rye Whiskey
Savage & Cooke Lip Service Straight Rye Whiskey comes from Savage & Cooke, the distillery that winemaker Dave Phinney of The Prisoner and Orin Swift fame built on Mare Island in Vallejo, California. Phinney applies a winemaker's instincts to whiskey, and Lip Service shows it: a three-year-old straight rye finished in French oak barrels that previously held Grenache from his own vineyards, bottled at 90 proof.
The base is a Tennessee-sourced rye with a mash bill of 51% rye, 45% corn and 4% malted barley, so it starts soft and sweet, and the Grenache finish adds red fruit and a touch of wine-barrel tannin. Drinkhacker rated it an A-, 9 out of 10, calling it perfectly enjoyable and fairly priced, with licorice, red pepper, brown sugar and caramel on a clean, approachable nose, fresh red berries, cinnamon, brown butter and clove on the palate, and a fruity, lively finish, noting the wine finish takes the harshness out of a young rye. It is a great rye for wine drinkers and a fun bottle from one of the Bay Area's most interesting distilleries.
