Tasting Notes

"The nose is somewhat muted on this whiskey, but the rye is there, peeking out with each sniff. There's also a subtle note of sweet, young corn. The initial palate is mostly soft rye spice which leads to a long, hot finish. There's a secondary layer of flavor missing here, which is a shame because the whiskey tastes fresh and inviting. It's just lacking a foundation of flavors to hang on to. Longer aging might be needed in order to let the grains shine. "
