| TASTING NOTE: Nose: as near as damn it [almost exactly] a rye in style, the fruitiness and spice generated by that 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 I'm complaining ... (103 proof) Score - 93 (Jim Murray, Whisky Bible, 2010) |
