  • Bulleit Rye

    Rye — Indiana (bottled in Kentucky), USA

    Reviewed August 17, 2021

    3.25 out of 5 stars
    Decent body. Sticks to the glass. Nose is smooth with caramel, butterscotch, and hints of oak and char. Taste is a little strong. Slight burn. Rye peppery spice carries throughout. Nice notes of vanilla and oak. Clean finish with a little woodiness from the oak.

  • J. Wray & Nephew White Overproof Rum

    Silver Rum — Jamaica

    Reviewed August 17, 2021

    Not something I could sip. But would do very well in cocktails. Nose has a strong ethanol smell, which is to be expected from an over proof rum. Also smells of green bananas and unripened fruit. Alcohol punches you in the mouth and burns going all the way down. A strong palette of rubbing alcohol, reminds of me trying to do shots of 151 as a kid. Finishes with hints of banana and spices like clove and allspice. It has a surprising flavor profile for a white rum. Kind of wish it was a lower proof to make it more sippable.

    Pretty viscous body, which I would expect from a rum. Nose of caramel and butterscotch. Sweet forward note, with slight banana flavor. Caramel carries throughout. Nice light finish with a touch of spice from, cinnamon (maybe?).

    Super light. Sticky body with a medium viscosity. Nose of slight vanilla, intense shortbread cookies. Light on the palette, hints of oak and wood, lots of vanilla and cookies again. Little burn with a clean finish.

    Super thin body. Almost no stick or viscosity. Nose is butterscotch and short bread cookies with a strong vanilla. Taste is smooth. A little sweet. Butterscotch continues through. Definite hints of vanilla. Light finish with minimal burn. Lingering taste of raisins.

    Surprising for a rye. Sticky body. A higher viscosity than expected. Nose is sweet. Vanilla and caramel with hints of oak and cinnamon. Taste is fire. Burns all the way down, at 50ABV, a little expected but definitely more than usual. Pretty mellow on the palette, tastes like baked bread with a hint of vanilla with a slight pepperiness from the rye. Burn on the finish with a slight numbing and hints of cinnamon.

    Nose of green apples with a hint of vanilla. Very mild and pleasant. Little bit of something sweet, maybe cherry or caramel. Tastes smooth. Again we see the green Apple and the vanilla. Touch of oak. Finishes creamy, like a vanilla milkshake.

    Light amber color with soft red hues. Decent body with a high viscosity, doesn’t really cling to the glass. Nose is sharp, stings the nostrils. Scents of caramel, light hint of char and smoke, sweet. Almost like a toasted marshmallow. Taste is mellow. Sweet with a bite, typical of bourbons. Slight hints of oak, woodiness, a touch of spice, maybe cinnamon.
