Pendleton 1910 12 Year Rye Whisky

The nose on this is sweet with artificial vanilla striking hard. Candied pineapple, brown sugar, and light spice finish the nose. The taste is very sweet with vanilla, brown sugar, and apricots, mango, and pineapple notes also present. A bit of oak and spice are also present and hit the back of the throat but there is no lingering spice. The finish is lasting but entirely made up of sugary notes. It is extremely crushable and due to the heavy influence of sweet fruit would also likely make a great cocktail rye. I will have to experiment a bit with some cocktails, but I do like it as it is, even though it is on the sweet side. Overall: Nose 3.75/5; Taste: 4.25/5 Overall 4/5 Repurchase: Yes Type: Occasional Pour/Mixer Too sweet to add as a daily Drinker

Not a strong pallet, drank this in an old fashioned cocktail with maple syrup and orange bitters. This made it super smooth to drink, as I was with some buddies that aren’t big whiskey aficionados.

Zero burn. Almost too smooth? Great for people who “don’t like whiskey.” Would drink again, but doesn’t leave a lasting memory.”

It's alright. Feel like it would be better in an old fashioned. Not alot of flavors to sip on by it self.
