I greatly enjoy Bulleit bourbon, so wanted to give their rye a go. Admittedly I'm not nearly as experienced in ryes as bourbons, and my only other comparison is Rittenhouse. I hear Bulleit rye is typical MGP sourced juice that is used by many rye bottlers but maybe Bulleit can put their signature on it, so let's find out! Enjoyed neat in a Glencairn. Nose shows an interesting mix for me consisting of dill, eucalyptus, and possibly spearmint with the classic Bulleit undertone of spiced tobacco that I just love in their bourbon. Definitely not your typical bourbon nose here though! The palate starts sweet with a nice spicy kick in typical rye fashion. Flavors are herbal, spicy, with more dill, maybe pine or mint and a backend of that nice tobacco that I love in their bourbon. Finish is medium in length with more tasty sweet tobacco, toasted barrel, and light herbs. Overall, I'm not generally the biggest rye fan in general, but the Bulleit is a nice change of pace from the norm. I'd say this is a fairly typical rye profile but the Bulleit influence definitely shines through, particularly their sweet tobacco notes in the finish. Not a bad sip for something different but I'll probably stick with their bourbon though on the regular! Cheers!
