Bulleit // Kentucky, USA
The Bulleit label, revived by Tom Bulleit, traces its roots to the early 1800s, when Augustus Bulleit produced a high-rye whiskey recipe for friends and family, though it was never sold commercially.
Tom reintroduced the brand in the late 1980s, and it was later acquired by Diageo in 2001.

Tasting Notes
"Nice nose with oak, still subtle hints of corn, vanilla and cinnamon. Taste is rye spice with burnt sugar, some tobacco and more rye. Medium finish where the cinnamon and rye in the mash bill come through again."
