As I recall Rittenhouse is a Rye Whisky not a Bourbon. I think I did have it once or twice, the 100 proof bottling, but I don't recall very much about it. That had to be in the late 1980's or early 1990's. I am not sure how many different bottling's there are. I'll have to check it out.

As far as straight Rye's go, it's hard to beat the Van Winkle 13yo Family Reserve but it's a little pricey. I think it sells in the $40+ range but I'm not sure right now. I just opened a bottle yesterday and I still have another sealed bottle left. I had purchased a case back in the late 1980's. It has always been my favorite straight Rye Whiskey.
