Hunter Rye Blended Canadian Whisky

Appearance: This Canadian blend had thick watery legs and an orange copper color. Nose: The nose, no surprise, was quite sweet. Notes of carmel, maple syrup, cotton candy dominate, while wildflowers, honey, ripe red apple and peach round out the rest of the nose. Taste: The palate, unfortunately, despite the more honest proof, was pretty bland. There was a peppery rye spice, with notes of ripe strawberry, light vanilla latte, and cheap coffee and creamer. Finish: It was a shorter length finish that started with a light peppery burn. Thoughts: There was no doubt this was a Canadian blended whisky; it had all the typical characteristics. But this bottom shelfer just didn’t quite cut it for me. As a budget higher proof option, this may be a good option, but overall, I wasn’t too impressed. Sorry, Hunter. Cheers!

Clear amber, with standard drips. Nose- some almond, with rye spice. Taste- standard Sazerac Co. almond-extract (white rum?) strange Canadian whisky house flavor, with peppery rye spice. Medium body, enhanced by the higher proof. Moderately-long finish. RJT

It's good. A strange palate to me. Perhaps that's the rye. Little burn, but it lasts longer than the taste. Smells like it tastes. Worth the price.

Smooth, sweet at first but finish is pretty smooth for a budget Rye. I’ll get again

Neat Almonds, fruit, high alcohols. Ok. Might be good in an old fashioned.

A lot of flavor, and surprisingly smooth, for such an inexpensive whiskey,
