This is one of the most complex and unique ryes that you could ever have. I don’t know if I’ll buy a bottle because it’s not my exact flavor profile, but it’s definitely complex. It’s hard to get past the sweet corn smell. Nose: Sweet corn, dark fruit, dark chocolate, and a smokey pipe tobacco, and maybe leather???? Palate: Dark chocolate, roasted malt from a stout beer, baking spice, cinnamon Finish: The same finish as if I’ve had a heavy heavy stout beer. Mouthfeel: Balcones is awesome at this. I don't know if they don't have a viscous whiskey.
