TASTING NOTE: Nose: ... the fruitiness and spice generated by [the rye] grain veritably glows in the glass. Taste: big rye again. It absolutely glitters about the palate offering salivating fruit notes against a background of cane juice. Wonderful. Finish: softens as the vanilla makes its mark, but the rye still pulses. Balance: looks as though someone tipped a few extra sacks of rye into the recipe by mistake. Not that Im complaining ... (103 proof) Score: 93 (Jim Murray, Whisky Bible, 2010) |
