It is low proof and you can tell 83% abv Nose is super floral. This may be the most floral whiskey I’ve had. A bouquet of roses and honeysuckle. Under that you do get a tiny bit of rye mint. Palate is light, sweet, unmistakable rye. A little minty caramel with a little bit of that rye spice. Peppery finish. The taste is good just wish the proof was higher. Nothing objectionable in the least. Perfect for a beginner that is not used to higher proofs but if you have a hardened palate then at least you can be happy giving yourself a big sloppy pour.

Nothing special here. This rye and the bourbon the make are good for mixed drinks, but straight is a no from me, dawg.
Grain and slight spice on the nose with a hint of leather maybe. Palate is thin with a lot of spice on the backend.
Smooth with hints of vanilla. Long finish. Not very much spice for a rye honestly.
Smells like generic rye. Tastes less agressive than normal rye and very gummy
Smooth. Decent rye flavor. Ok sipper but nothing to write home about
