Nose: It has a odd nose. I get the cherry with note of oak Taste: Baked cherry, floral note almost potpourri like, light rye notes, Finish: Man the whiskey just sits on the tongue with a spicy cherry just staying with you. Overall: the price tag for this bottle does not equate to the age and overall flavor of this whiskey. They dont give the percentages but 6 year old rye and 12 year old 100% corn whiskey.
