Clyde May's Straight Rye

Nose: heavy rye spice. Almost metallic. Deeper into the nose, floral, then followed by bright fruit (really pleasant). Reminds me of sweet tea Palate: Spicy up front, followed by sweet fruit and floral dominance. Overall: 3.25/5. I like it, but not sure I would buy again. The floral/fruit notes are a little too powerful in my opinion.

Good MGP rye. I am a fan of their rye whiskey. That said, it's not unique. It's a standard MGP

Definitely a grassy rye on the nose with a bit of sweetness. Rye comes in strong on the taste and moves in to a little spice and sweetness towards the finish. Decent rye but nothing overly stands out.

The nose starts with a rye spice that is a great split between earthy and floral along with green apple, charred oak, chinese cinnamon and light hints of toffee. It is very much MGP rye and feels more of a common rye than one that is unique to Clyde May's. The palate is very gently with rye spice that, with a bit of a chew, makes it's way to the corners of the mouth while charred oak floods over the tongue. The mouth is filled with floral notes while not much besides some hints of cinnamon make an appearance. The finish is short but spicy with floral rye lasting for a moment while the corners the corners of the mouth stay a bit tingly, although that too quickly fades. The palate and the finish absolutely do not live up to what you experience on the nose, but for a very basic rye there is nothing wrong with this.

Prominent rye spice and a moderate alcohol heat. Butterscotch on the nose. Enjoyed on a single large ice cube.
