90 proof
NAS
Rye
Limestone Branch Distillery
$48
51% rye, balance corn and malted barley
Nose
Floral with fruity notes from the cream sherry cask finish. Light and approachable.
Palate
Chewy texture with spice that attacks the top of the mouth rather than the tongue. Introduces bourbon drinkers to rye gently with its balanced profile.
Finish
Secondary sweetness like simple syrup washes across the back of the tongue with a nice sweet kick.
Overall Score
4 / 5
An introductory rye whiskey with a sherry cask sweetness that makes it an exceptional choice for Manhattans and an ideal bridge for bourbon enthusiasts exploring rye.
