Tastes

Nose: sweet, vanilla bean Palate: very oaky, but in a good way, balanced Finish: warm Overall: great pour, very unique flavor as its very oaky and sweet but not off putting

N: chocolate malted balls, nutty buddy, permanent marker P: so balanced, get a little dill on the back end F: drinks bellow 100 proof O: first time tasting this. I really like it and would definitely keep it stocked (if I can find it)

N: baking spice, wheat or pumpernickel bread, some funk on the back-end of the nose P: some funk on the palate too, thin, maybe a bit of spearmint F: short , feel like it drinks under proof O: tastes so much different than my first pour of this bottle. I actually liked the first pour better as I’m a little underwhelmed this time around. Love the bottle design though (so does my wife).

N: burnt sugar, bready P: earthy, bold flavor, slight marshmallow F: warm but not long lasting, drinks well below the 120 proof mark O: rare example where I think the barrel proof is not as good as the proofed down pour. *note to self: need to taste again when I just didn’t have Indian food with Indian food smell on my hands

N: graham cracker P: earthy, fall leaves, peanuts, burnt sugar on the back, malt, drinks to proof F: warm like 100 proof O: not necessarily in my flavor profile, but not bad

N: no proof at all, sweet cardboard or brown paper bag P: grainy, malty, autumn leaves F: short, little warmth, no tingle O: drug city pick….eh?

Nose: bready, cola, sweet Palate: earthy, thin, malt Finish: basic b, short Overall: nothing remarkable

N: mint, pickles, snickerdoodle cookies, cake batter P: drinks like a rye to me (interested in what the mash bill looks like), balanced with some spice F: thin and a little drying, not a lot of burn and this is the first whiskey of the day O: this was part of a whiskey advent calendar (Drug City pick), so this is probably not the right place to put this review. Enjoyed this poor. Would definitely keep this on the shelf.

N: mint, spearmint lifesaver, little dill P: minty (more that than spicy), but not like peerless F: long and full O: really like this rye, new to it and would def keep this on the shelf
