2.5/5 - Good but not very interesting or intense in the rye flavor department. Much closer to a bourbon. Has that familiar Jim Beam nuttiness with a higher abv and mild rye spices. Barely any dill, floral or menthol notes to speak of...I much prefer Bulleit Rye to this. Who knows, maybe it will grow on me, but initial impressions are not that good. I expected more based on other reviews. Mostly just clove, vanilla and slightly menthol with an over arching jim beam peanut brittle nuttiness.
