Buzzard's Roost Toasted Barrel Straight Rye

MASHBILL: 95% Rye; 5% Malted Barley (a Monongahela (aka “Pennsylvania”) type of Rye Whiskey) NOSE: grassy rye, laced with “fruity” notes (mint??) some hints of earth tones. PALATE: sweetness intertwined with baking spices, toasted marshmallows, and subtle hints of leather… FINISH: The sweetness fades somewhat in the accents of leather & rye grasses consumes my mouthful. The finish is nice but fades to some dryness in the echoes of its rye mash bill. Come hardening back to me. OVERALL: this is a very good rye whiskey and is very enjoyable to me. Some rye whiskeys can leave me dry and “wanting”; but this Buzzard’s Roost Toasted Rye it’s me back for another sip (or more!)

Sweet, marshmellow, toasty treat. Really enjoyed. A sweeter, tamer version of Michters Toasted Rye

It's youth shows, but only a little. The cinnamon toast grain is heavy in the nose and soft on the pallete combined with rich vanilla and light oak. Turns to a light cinnamon red hot in the finish.
