Hard Truth Indiana Straight Rye Whiskey (100 Proof, 4 Years)
100 proof 4 years Rye Hard Truth Distillery Nashville, IN $42
Nose

Almonds, Christmas potpourri, fresh spring notes with dandelion and chicory character, subtle green notes, dry sweetness reminiscent of opened Skittles bag

Palate

Very sweet with candied almonds, sweet tea with lemonade (Arnold Palmer-like), sweet corn cob sweetness, green flavor notes, sweet spice on the second sip, deep sweetness saturating the center of the palate with some tartness on the sides of the tongue

Finish

Medium length, hugs the sides of mouth and tongue with no chest burn, skips past the front and saturates the center of the palate

Satisfying
A very sweet, approachable Indiana rye with dessert-like qualities and a pleasant summer-sipper profile that works well as a crafted local expression.
