It is Smooth, Delicious, and not complex. There is not much rye spice here. We purchased a bottle and before we realized it, it was gone, because this is a smooth, tasty and easy to drink whiskey I would recommend purchasing two bottles. 95% Rye, 5% Corn or Barley - MGP Rye. Some say they add tasting additives, with this being said it is still a tasty beverage. Be Kind, Be Generous, Be Real, Be Responsible!!! CH33RS

As expected, a smoother milder version of their normal templeton. While very easy drinking straight, it almost loses a little character but I could be being harsh. It does disappear quickly when drinking straight so be aware. 😀

Aroma is wood, forest, shellac. Taste is intense spice, some sweetness on the finish. Definitely sippable but a tad on the spicey side for me. Made a very nice Sazerac.
