Donnie & Teresa's Rye Moonshine (100 Proof)
100 proof
NAS
Rye Whiskey
Beattyville Hillbillies
Beattyville, KY
$80
100% rye, malted barley
Nose
Sweet corn and grain aromas with a pleasant, sweet profile that avoids harsh ethanol notes. Reminiscent of juicy fruit on the nose.
Palate
Smooth and well-balanced with sweet notes of taffy or saltwater taffy without added flavoring. Rye character comes through with a slight stickiness from the grain. Not hot or burning on the initial taste.
Finish
Clean finish with a slight Kentucky hug (warmth) that dissipates quickly without harshness.
Very good
A remarkably smooth, well-crafted rye moonshine with excellent balance and surprising sweetness that belies its 100-proof strength.
