I met the Roaming Man Tennessee Straight Rye Whiskey with this Batch 3 bottling. I remember myself getting into the packaging, the great label but most importantly, the transparency about the production.

I find the whiskey style, simply bold and rich. If you are looking for a complex style with high proof, you are at the right place.

Roaming Man Batch 3 was produced only 444 bottles and it was aged for 2 years and 5 months in 3 different 25 gallon barrels with #3 and #4 char levels.

You feel all the complexity in the whiskey that I have written above. Two things to improve is certainly age and texture of the spirit. I found Batch 3 to be a little bit on the thinner side than i have imagined with this alcohol level.

I told myself to follow the brand and hopefully try the next batches when possible and here are the Batch 8 and Batch 9!
