Rebel 100 Straight Rye Whiskey landed on my desk at 50% ABV), mash bill: 51% rye, 45% corn, and 4% mal, carrying a $19.99. The initial fleeting rubber eraser smell at first nose segues into rustic flavors of lemon c price tag. Here is what I found.
Nose
The initial fleeting rubber eraser smell at first nose segues into rustic flavors of lemon citrus, honey, green peppercorn, and raw pear.
Palate
The palate offers spicy notes of warm grains, vanilla, dry raisins, and sawdust. This rye is a straightforward sipper that isnt overly complex, with a moderate flavor profile of well balanced earthy rawness. It offers a medium to long, dry finish with a texture thats slightly more grainy than smooth. Definitely not a bad rye whiskey for the price point.
