Snagged a few essentials on the way back from Don's today.

That rye is great stuff, PalmTreePat. Do you ever combine it with rum in a variation on an Old Fashioned? I think it goes great with various runs, but Demerara and golden agricoles particularly.

It is really great with Demerara. My favorite combo for an OF when I'm feeling fancy is a 3:1 blend of the rye to Hamilton/Lemon Hart 151, which also happens to be the basis of the Poipu Beach Boogie Board, a drink you should definitely try ASAP if you haven't already.

1 1/2 oz rye whiskey
1/2 oz Demerara 151
1/4 oz maraschino
1 oz pineapple juice
1 oz lemon
1/2 oz guava juice
3/4 oz grenadine
1 dash Angostura bitters

Blend 3 seconds w/ crushed ice.
