Rye — Kentucky, USA

Note: this is only the 3 year review.
initially not a fan of this bottle but once it sat open for a little while it really developed into a strong pour.
Nose: rye spices, cinnamon, nutmeg, anise, maybe some cardamom?
Palate: Cinnamon really comes through. this is like apple pie spices and cinnamon nonstop. as that degrades, you get some mint, herbal essences, a touch of ethanol.
Finish: mint comes through once again and a touch of the spiciness of the rye makes an appearance; but it’s not overbearing. i believe this is a low rye-content rye; perhaps 51% or 65% rye, doubtful it’s more than that.
