I’ve had several offerings from 1792, and finally getting around to this one, Jim Murray’s 2020 World Whisky Award (published in 2019). We’ll see. The nose has a decent amount of rye spice with oak, cooked red apple, baking spices, honey and brown sugar. A really pleasant nose. There is a slight dustiness that I usually get on other 1792’s, but not as pronounced. The palate is slightly oily. I get some sweet cola, rye, brown sugar, and a little dusty empty peanut can. The tongue almost immediately feels like it’s drying out and becomes almost chalky. Not necessarily a bad thing and somewhat common among whiskies with this high of proof. The finish has a long slow fade of the palate. Lingering heat on the sides of the tongue and throat. There’s a moment on the finish where it kind of reminds me of a Wild Turkey product. This is pretty good whiskey. Is it the best, or my all time favorite? No. But it is very good whiskey and definitely my favorite of the 1792’s I’ve had.
