"Fantastic for Whiskey Sours," however, drinking it neat in the evening is a definite no. On a personal note, this bottle isn't unique in currently flooding the market with Rye/Bourbon bottlings. Overproduction of average product simply to profit. Apologies, but this is far too expensive for a market filled with much superior Ryes.

Good rye. Apple/pear with grassy rye notes on the nose. Spicy. Rounded on the palate with a spicy finish. Lingering dark caramel and brown sugar notes.
Fruity aroma and a very light burn for a rye. A cherry finish. It will be a regular at our home.
An acceptable rye. Definitely average. Strong rye notes with perhaps a hint of vanilla.
Nose: Strawberries and cream with cacao. Taste: Notes of black pepper, coffee, and grassy undertones.
Remarkable! Much more wood-forward than the old grandad
