Laws 6 Year San Luis Valley Straight Rye Bonded

Nose: spicy toothpaste? (Changes after tasting to mimic the flavors I pulled out, but I can still get this vibe if I isolate it) Taste: rye spice, cinnamon and orange that's hiding in the back. Coats the tongue, but thin. Finish: some heat, a dry tang, and baking spices. Impressions: I actually really like this! I had no idea what to expect. It's a very rye-heavy rye, so the spiciness is pronounced, but there's a softness that's unexpected and really smooths it out. I wouldn't seek it out for the price, but I certainly wouldn't turn down a glass if offered.

Capsule review from Whiskies of the World Dallas: This bonded version of their rye is a 95% rye/5% barley mashbill. On the nose aromas of chocolatey malt is reminiscent of a PayDay bar. However, on the palate, the focus is more on the grain with a short to medium finish.

Floral, rye spice and tobacco on the nose. Like really. Faint sweet and earthy cigarillo, different, but enjoyable. Perceived sweetness and this brightness (think pickles but not acidic) that overshadows the spikes of alcohol.

Flaviar Advent Day 18- tasted blind. Very interesting. Woody, strong taste of oak and cedar coupled with a mix of spices and herbs- I'm picking up curry and dill.

This is Law’s most impressive whiskey out of their lineup. With several awards including a double gold, this pour is on the come up.

Good whiskey but a little expensive. If you take into account the locally sourced heirloom grains they use it is worth it
