Holy dill. The nose is lots of intensely sweet dill, white pepper, and almost a nitrile glove type smell. Lots of earthy yet sweet spices, dill weed, mustard green, anise, etc. Not overly or artificially sweet. Nose is promising, no hint of alcohol as expected at only 92 proof. Herbaceous, to sum up in a word. The palate delivers on the sweetness, but not the herb-y uniqueness. Sweet generic caramel and a little bit of oak is present, along with a sizeable dose of 'dusty' flavor and feel (leather maybe?). The finish brings back a tiny bit of earthy-ness and dill, as well as a tad of the white pepper. Finish is pretty short and small, leaving really only some lingering sweet pickle-y dill and mint. The takeaway: $30 is right a little high for a blend of 2-7 year old ryes. I wish that I could compare to older bottles that had some of the 17 year old sourced juice in it, maybe those would have delivered better. But, at the end of the day this was pretty dissapointing, both from a price/value standpoint as well as a nose promise and palate delivery. The nose really promises a lot that the palate and finish can't get close to delivering on. The herbaceous-ness is noteworthy and unique, but doesn't merit buying again for me, hence the 3.25 stars rather than 3.75. If you want to show a new whiskey drinker the difference between a bourbon and a rye, this is an okay vessel for that, but I would still suggest Dickel or Bulliet ryes or even Sagamore for a spicier palate, but this is a great nose. I guess maybe if you like dill then this may be your jam? But personally, not a fan of the new Double Rye! blend
