General description

Ein sehr eigenwilliger, ungewöhnlichicher Whisky und dennoch interessant

Nose

Zunächst intensives Rosenwasser und Menthol, danach dunkle Früchte wie Zwetschgen, vielleicht auch etwas Zimt

Palate

Im ersten Moment Salz, dann intensiver Pfeffer, erst danach entwickelt sich die süße

Finish

Trockener, danach bittere Paprika und noch viel später wieder Salz

General description

An diesen Whisky muss man sich gewöhnen. Je länger man sich mit ihm beschäftigt, desto mehr Interesse daran kommt auf. Der Blumengeschmack ist jedoch wirklich "strange".

Nose

Rosenwasser, Gewürznelken, Gummi

Palate

weich, süss-blumig, Vanille, Roggen

Finish

süss, würzig-bitter, leicht metallisch, die leicht bittere Getreidenote hält sich lange, wird dann wieder von der blumigen Süsse abgelöst

General description

round rye spices on the nose, brown sugar, even some interesting undertones of dill, too. initially hot and spicy palate, big hit right off the bat. moves into pepper with that same dill note, then a short finish that's got a tannic quality to it. can't wait to try it as a mixer, but I'm unlikely to drink it straight often.

General description

Full flavour, spicy rye. Worth the few extra dollars from bottom of the barrel stuff. Good as a mixer and as a sipping whisky.

General description

Lowish 43% proof is made up by the stirring spice that wakes up the tongue, 100% rye showing the floral spice off compared to Rittenhouse 51% rye which is sweeter rounder w more viscous mouthfill. Yummy and anti-boring this 100% rye.

Finish strength: Medium
Color: Russetmuscat

General description

deep rich colour with mild to moderate oil content (legs)

Nose

oak wood shavings and a sweet fruit, almost red Apple, like gala, but less spikey with a faint pickle in the background.

Palate

light dill pickle at first that is quickly overtaken by black pepper and oak barrel

Finish

has a mild to moderate linger of oak barrel, and dill pickle that transforms over time into sweet butter pickle in the background of the oak

General description

Rye is a spicy whiskey by nature. A bit rough around the edges, and not a full as it could be. Still, worth the $$

Lovely nose which promises more than it's yet able to give. Reminiscent of a slightly older Dad's Hat.
