Fantastic rye! This is my benchmark for ryes. It's hard to justify spending more on a rye for this quality. Nose: Caramel, Clove, Vanilla Palate: Carmel vanilla, rye spice, and mint Finish: The best part, viscous, medium heat, long flavor Mouthfeel: One of the best parts of the whiskey and it's definitely one of the characteristics that set it apart from other ryes.
