Wow! Vanilla and Butterscotch come through heavily and pleasantly on the nose. It’s not your Grandpap’s Rye. In fact, it definitely doesn’t taste like a Rye Whiskey. Very unique and special. Wonderful finish with a long, pleasant palate. Not your everyday sipper because of the price, but definitely worth the price. Pairs beautifully with chocolate. Wanna impress your friends? Give ‘em a dram of this Rye. Top Shelf placeholder.
