Tasting Notes

Nose

Baked apple, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, honey, tangerine, grapefruit, pineapple — the 100% rye creating a bold, spice-forward nose

Palate

Cinnamon and chilli pepper upfront, sweet maple syrup and honey mid-palate, rye bread, orange and pineapple, vanilla — bold, spicy, herbal

Finish

Spice-filled with lingering rye warmth and a pleasant bitter edge — the 10 years of ageing rounding the 100% rye without taming it

Expert Review

8/10

100% rye mashbill, 100 proof, 10 years. Founded by Raj Bhakta on Vermont farmland in 2007, with legendary Dave Pickerell (former Maker's Mark Master Distiller) hired to develop the whiskey. Pickerell passed away in 2018. Originally sourced from Alberta, Canada, now increasingly Vermont-distilled. One of the most awarded rye whiskeys in America.
