Castle & Key Restoration Rye 2021 (Batch 1)

Very smooth whiskey with lost of flavor. Vanilla comes out the strongest with a very different light airy flavor.

Nose has heaps and heaps of nutmeg. There is some candied orange slices and mint mixed in there as well. Palate is filled with honey and clove. Brown Sugar and vanilla make an appearance as well as some lemon bar show up as well. It has a lot going on for such a young rye. Finish is shorter and has the tendency to fall off a little too quickly. This hurts it's overall score as the nose is interesting and the palate is a treat. There is a little oak and cinnamon but it is fleeting and drying.
