Tasting Notes

"Hirsch's new high-rye bourbon explodes out of the gate with rye spice. Despite its eight years in charred oak, notes of vanilla play only a supporting role here. As the initial spice fades, hints of white pepper, crisp pear, and butterscotch emerge. A brash and flavorful whiskey, it will appeal to fans of rye and high-rye bourbon."
