Colonel E.H. Taylor, Jr. Straight Rye

my favorite so far. it smells delicious and tastes even better. There's a definite heat to it, but the taste is complex and intriguing

PBM has hit it on the head with the eucalyptus, minty flavour. Its definitely not the usual rye flavour and it's also a bit thin bodied. It's a quality dram but not one I'd drink a lot of. Given how outrageously gouged we are price wise for this dram given we are paying 3+ times more here in nz vs the USA, I'd say 3.5 rounding down on VFM.

Good burn, almost pallet cleansing. I’m good base whiskey.

A little pricey but excellent grassy spicy rye. Spice and grass and toffee on the nose. Baking spice and burned candy and smoky leather in the mouth. Oak and vanilla emerge, and then a long sweet finish. Really love this rye.
