This is a strange rye, and only after trying it did I read online that this whiskey is notorious (and much criticized among enthusiasts) for adding some flavoring compounds to this otherwise standard MGP juice. I won't be buying this whiskey again, but for what it's worth, it's an inoffensive dram. Other than a standard blend of mild sweetness and herbal rye scents, the most unique and standout note for this rye is a strong flavor of green or eucalyptus tea on the palate and finish. Hey, who knows, maybe that's what they threw in through artificial flavoring.
