I am so sorry to have to share the news, but I think someone peed in the creek.

I’m not a fan of rye bourbon’s, and my taste buds really bitched about being forced to try this Rowan’s Creek. I’m sure that if you like rye whiskey, you will enjoy it, it just wan’t my cup of tea.

For me, Rowan’s Creek scores a 39/100.

Pros

• I got to say, someone peed in the creek.

Cons:

• The high rye content reminds me of drinking astringent.
