Reviewed September 11, 2020 (edited March 19, 2022)Aroma is nicely done with a warm delivery of everything you want from a rye whiskey with only a hint of that pungent craft note that plagues so many young distilleries; Palate opens up to a bit more cakey and fruity notes with a strong high-quality-candy-like sweetness – the kind that use real sugar and a shortlist of easy to pronounce ingredients; Finish is your standard oaked spice and fruit rye whiskey affair. -

Reviewed September 6, 2020 (edited March 19, 2022)116 proof single barrel. Nose is honey lemon with a little alcohol heat coming through. I didn't really pick up much rye spice, which is surprising with this being 56% rye. Palate is the star of this show. Creamy and mildly sweet. I get orange, chocolate, and hints of vanilla. Smooth, creamy mouth feel. There is rye spice that lingers in the background and is light but well balanced with the other flavors. Finish is fast to medium and betrays its proof. More orange, with hints of rye and char and just enough heat going down to make you happy. Later I tried this on a rock, and it tasted like a dreamsicle.
