Nose
This whiskey is a pale mahogany in color. Im a sucker for a sweet and silky rye-heavy bourbon and often turn to MGP to satisfy the itch. Sipping this whiskey was a joy, with the aromatics dissolving on my tongue. Its intense without being unctuous, and boldly aromatic without overwhelming. The palate lacks a touch on complexity, but its a fine whiskey for sipping, especially if you enjoy the MGP style.
