I've never done tasting notes before, and this is my first rye. However, I get strong rye spice up front that's met by an also strong sweetness, helping to manage it. If you think of rye bread and what you'd imagine a rye whiskey would be, this is it.
Spicey punch upon first entry. The finish is very chocolatey. Like a chocolate velvet cake or candy with raspberry notes. Ice helps mellow the punch.
I liked it in an Old-Fashioned. I tried it neat and it burned pretty good on the way down. Will stick to drinking it in Old-Fashioneds or Manhattans.
Full body. Big & Bold Spicy with a little longer finish than Pendleton Midnight. They have a 65.4% option at some stores.
this is really nice, especially at the price point. The second spirit from them I have tried and so far they are solid.
