Type: Rye Whiskey

ABV: 50%

Score: 92 Points

This six-year-old Bottled in Bond rye whiskey has oak tannins on the nose along with rye spices, red apples, cherries, peaches, and caramel candy. The taste is thick, oily, and astringent with notes of cinnamon, clove, white pepper, tree fruits, and caramel ice cream topping. The finish is long, dry, and spicy. (December, 2024)
