Whistlepig 10 Year Small Batch Rye

This is top shelf for me. Not smoky or spicy. Super good example of American whisky.

Never had a 100% rye so was very interested in this. Its from Canada so maybe that impacts the %. 10 yr age statement is much appreciated. Poured neat, nice thick glasscoat. Nose is sweet bubblegum, bread dough, baking spices, banana peel, tea leaf, dill and barrel oak. Ethanol is mild even at 100pf. Don't worry the proof makes itself known on the palate. Powerful heated blast of sweet gum and dusty spice with oaky vanilla and cooling mint. Strong but very smooth delivery. Finish is buttery oak, savory spice with mild drying cinnamon and mint. Its worth the pricetag and damned good rye. If your not sure you like rye get your hands on some of this.........89/100.......great depth of delicious flavor
