I enjoy this neat. Very different... licorice, sweet, herbal. It is very true to those notes...so doesn't work too well in a cocktail. I prefer a spicy robust rye for cocktails. This is an interesting craft rye, though!
Nose - rich caramel, surprisingly sweet smell, light eucalyptus notes Taste - light tree sap notes, rye spice forward and some pepper Finish - dry and a bit herbal, light burn
This is an interesting Rye. An initial rush of sweetness morphs into a more traditional Rye pepperness. Overall a nice sipper, but not on par with the best in industry.
Extremely sweet, too sweet for a rye in my opinion. Very little spice, which is what I really want out of a rye. Caramel, malt, vanilla
Very unique rye. I love Mammoth's approach to their whiskey. I'm really excited to see what they put out as the years go on
Tastes like a smooth rye
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
