Pretty good whiskey, had in Charleston SC. If you have the option between this and the one with ginger (not listed on this site), get the ginger one!

good finish. I picked up pecan. I'm surprised it's a rye, I didn't get a lot of spice.
Nose was smoky. Loved the flavor. A bit peaty and overall and smooth finish. 3.5/5
As a newly made fan of rye, this is spicy and bold in all the right places.
Perfect balance of spice and sweetness.
Too much bite.
