Nose
I didnt notice the usual spiciness of rye, or anything approaching rye bread. Instead, I discovered overripe brown bananas, coffee cake with a cinnamon-crumb topping, and almonds.
Palate
Light on the rye spice; more a sweet whiskey than a peppery one. Vanilla, cinnamon spiced apples, brown sugar butter cookies. Fades quickly, with a gentle, honeyed finish.
Finish
Comments: Latest On The Whiskey Wash Mash bill undisclosed, but its a straight rye, which means that its at least 51% rye grass and aged in new oak; aged for a minimum of seven years; 50% alcohol by volume/100 proof; MSRP of $36.95 for a 750 ml bottle
