My favorite rye. Neutral sweet opener, deep vanilla body, with a long tannic finish, thats also pretty alcoholic and burny, but contrasts nicely with the sweet vanilla flavors. I think the roughness of it may put some people off, but the flavors underneath it are better than most whiskeys ive tasted.
A twangy start, some menthol on the front turning into cinnamon, oak, prune, herbality that goes later to a long spicy finish. Nothing to bark at personally.
Terrible. Burns from start to finish, and tastes like chemicals.
Slightly oaky & peach. Big caramel aftertaste. Quite nice.
Peetey honey flavors. Not a fan
Fruity and floral rye
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
