Always feel special being the first to review a dram. This is a new Distillery owned by a Michigander that got the whiskey bug. Nose is mellow and comes off of fresh baked rye bread. As you take the first sip it immediately is apparent this isn't a typical rye. Hints of honey and almond come through that you would normally associate with straight bourbon. A more reserved pepper finish follows with a mild bite. Very nice if not different that other ryes on the market.
