I’m not a fan of Jack Daniels….normally. But this rye has brought me around. Interesting enough, when I tried to get a glass of this on the cruise ship that I was on. They were charging about $20 a shot on this. Which is crazy, because I just bought a 750 ml of this the week before and it was only $27. But I think that it may change as people come to appreciate it more.
a bit stronger than i thought, with a dry spicy flavor to it, not too smooth taste, but not harsh either.
spicy
The Best Rye I have had, a decent but not overwhelming rye spice, that actually has other flavors that keeps ones interest, so that it is not a boring one or two note samba.

Oh damn, this is a nice and enjoyable rye whiskey. Rounded and sweet in taste. Slightly thin body. I may enjoy it neat, on the rocks or with ginger ale. A real all-rounder. I recommend.
My first rye whiskey. I am very surprised about taste. Great balance between sweetness and piquancy.
some decent pepper notes on the nose, slight brown sugar and caramel under the spice. palate is a pretty standard and decent rye - brown sugar, caramel, pepper, then a finish that starts with some dill then the spicier brown sugar. not bad at all.
Bin unentschlossen, was ich von ihm halten soll. Da pur kein Trinkgenuss, eher was zum Mixen.
fruchtig (Pflaume/Banane)
süss-würzig (dezent Ahornsirup), Anklänge von Rauch
Restsüsse, immer noch dezent nach Pflaumenkompott/Bananenbrei.
Das geleerte Glas riecht nach frischem Zigarettentabak
basic rye, not complex. no real highs or lows to it.
Grain taste is strong with this one.
You know what, I like it. I don't care for No.7 straight but can drink this with ice. Not any smoother than No7 but different taste. I get it on sale and not a bad value.
proof hits hard
banana
Classic JD taste ,but with alot more grain. Not that special.
fruité.
assez doux
long en bouche
not better than normal jack
The banana notes are unmistakable and completely unexpected in a spicy rye. It is an interesting rye and not in any way unpleasant. This Rye with it's fruit forward (banana) allows a bit of grassy dill notes shimmer through. This is a very light, somewhat sweet and fruity rye. Enjoying rye in a Sazerac cocktail paired up with Peychaud's Bitters it is not an ideal match as the Cherry, Clove and light cinnamon of the Bitters is not ideal suited for a rye with such an undeniable banana profile. An Old Fashioned may fare better...
Would I purchase this Rye again? Yes, if I were intending to introduce the pleasure of whiskey and Rye in particular to those unfamiliar to whiskey altogether. It's light fruitiness and subdued spice are completely unintimidating.
banana forward some great dill
short to medium
Easily drinker familiar Jack Daniel's notes
Vanilla
Banana candy, acetone, and oak tannins
Banana, oak
A very mild rye. I enjoyed drinking it, but I'm not left with any strong opinions on it either way.
Average rye
spice to push the rye idea
pepper, pine like, honey, vanilla
easy but with spice, ciguar, and butter
Not great, but not bad either.
Nice rye taste, old#7 aftertaste, a bite smooth,
toffee, chocolate, cooked apple, pepper
Strong nail polish remover and acetone on the nose. Taste is very different, very light for a rye and almost dainty with vanilla and banana notes topping the palate. Smooth finish that ends with a spicy kick typical of rye, which procrastinated a bit before showing up. Despite the strong nose overall very light for a rye.
Nice aroma. Very pleasing. Not overly sweet or spicy. Good balance. Smooth taste.
just had as a sample..not to my liking. very sweet on the palate..Prefer a whisky
sharp triple burn to strong banana to Sherry short finish
sharp high bourbon
hot white pepper, cardomum, spearmint, vanilla, apple, banana
Sherry
it was ok. nothing special. not much spicy rye that I like
Bananas at first sip, with a maple syrup after taste.
unique mashbill - 70% rye, a non MGP offering - and value price. worth it at $24
Ripe bananas and in general a pretty mediocre rye.
Ripe bananas
Rye(obviously) but mainly ripe bananas
sweet but short
Kräftige Banane, aber dann sehr schwach.
Over ripe bananas with maple syrup; good value rye whiskey.
