JT Melick Louisiana Rice Whiskey Single Barrel (Mashing Journeys Pick)
119 proof 4+ years Rice Whiskey JT Melick Frankfort, KY $65 100% Louisiana rice
Nose

Clean with vanilla pudding notes, light sweet character, bourbon-like with present oak, resembles a wheated bourbon.

Palate

Silky and sweet, departing from bourbon characteristics mid-palate into syrupy pancake territory, remarkably soft texture.

Finish

Long and lingering with cereal notes.

Really good
A remarkably silky rice whiskey that initially presents as bourbon on the nose before revealing its own unique sweet, pancake-like character.
