Col. E.H. Taylor Straight Rye

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Rye

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 50%

Score: 93 Points

The nose has a great balance of toasted rye and oak, along with hints of honey, vanilla, roasted almonds, and cocoa. The taste is creamy and spicy with cinnamon and a rye note that comes in suddenly and fades slowly. The finish has hints of licorice and brown sugar with spicy touches of cinnamon and rye, and is nice and long. Outstanding.
