Tastes

Sweet, oaky, nutty, leathery. All night rye. My favorite pick in the $30 price range.

Definitely better value bourbons out there. It's a good bourbon but I wasn't very impressed. Was expecting more out of a bourbon with 89 expert rating and 4.3 customer. Tastes like a traditional, nice bourbon with a little sweetness and that hot finish but no special flavor notes that put it into my top 5 under $80 bourbons

Amazing value on this bourbon. Tough to find a better whiskey under $35. Despite the lighter color, plenty of flavor profile. I get sweet, fruity notes with hint of banana and a nice woodsy flavor to balance it out. This and Lot No 40 Canadian Rye are 2 of my favorite whiskeys under $35.

Currently the favorite rye in my collection ahead of Pikesville Rye(2nd) and Lot No 40 Canadian Rye (3rd). Great full body flavor and finish. Sweet and oaky with a nice hint of spices.

Hints of dark fruit with some acidity and sharpness. Candied sweetness in the finish. Came in 3rd behind Heaven's door double barrel whisky (2nd) and Sagamore spirit double oak rye (1st) in a blind taste test.

Mild flavor some floralness and sweetness. Enjoyed other ryes and bourbons more with more full, rich flavors

2nd time tasting this. First tasting I was very impressed with a balanced sweet and oaky flavor. 2nd tasting was a new bottle and less impressed. Smell was more could be described as mix of vinegar, walnuts, and almond liqueur. The taste also had strong walnut flavor. Didn't taste as sweet and oaky at all (possibly different, subpar batch). 3rd place in a blind taste test behind Sagamore double oaked rye (1st) and Pikesville 110 straight Rye (2nd).

Nice, oaky smell. The taste is oaky, rich and spicy with a hint of sweetness. 2nd place (out of 5) in a blind taste test behind Sagamore Double Oaked Rye. Very similar taste with a little less sweetness.
