Tastes

This LDI-sourced whiskey uses LDI's high-rye recipe, which is definitely how I prefer my bourbon. The tall, thin bottle brings a generic look to the increasingly infamous LDI bourbon. The alcohol hit up front definitely started this pour on a weak note for me. But it settled into a good traditional corn and spice flavor. Without the big rye / pepper influence I'm tempted to call this a smooth, easy introductory drink for someone exploring past the Beam hegemony. Instead I'll stick with it being a decent option in the crowded mid-range of the Bourbon world. Perhaps a little over-priced for a common, but enjoyable flavor. http://www.reddit.com/r/bourbon/comments/2hutm9/redemption_highrye_bourbon_review_12/

Sweet corn soufflé but little else. Pleasant but not the star of the evening.

Light but sweet flog irking with hints of maple and pear. The corn note evolves into memories of a grilled, butter dipped ear of corn.
