Sazerac Rye

Cherry vanilla sweet. Char smoky finish

Great for Manhattan

This is really smooth nice for sipping. The nose is pretty weak though for what it is. The taste was a lot fruitier than what I would have thought. After taste is slightly spicy but very light on that.

Been a while, I’m back! For a young rye, it’s more complex than others with similar ages. Nose opens as slightly sweet, grilled peaches, and warm strawberry jam. The palate has herbal spices like rosemary, and a tannins-like mouthfeel dries the mouth slightly but does not retract from the enjoyment. Subtle tobacco meanders in the background slightly with each sip. Finish is leggy, surprisingly long, and pleasant remaining at the roof of the palate reminiscent of anise. No need for ice with this one but fine if you do.
