On this week's episode, while Scott is out for the birth of his new son, Jake and Michael take time to reflect back on The Bourbon Lens' first year and highlights for us in 2019, and oh yeah, put some rye whiskies to the test.

We put eight rye whiskies through the rye flight challenge. Comparing the match-ups by proof, we sipped some really fine rye whiskey, and one that was a real letdown, who will it be?

Rye Flight Fights:

• Bulleit Rye 12 Year (92 Proof) vs. Colonel EH Taylor Straight Rye (100 Proof)
• Angel's Envy Finished Rye (100 Proof) vs. Wild Turkey 101 Rye (101 Proof)
• Parkers Heritage Rye 8 Year (105 Proof) vs. Pikesville Rye (110 Proof)
• Willett Family Estate Small Batch Rye 4 Year (111 Proof) vs. Wilderness Trail Rye (112 Proof)

Tune in to see which was our favorite and least favorite. The beautiful thing about whiskey is that everyone's pallet is unique, so be sure to let us know which of these rye whiskies you prefer!
