American Whiskey (Blended Rye & Bourbon)
Mythology Distillery
$53
Blend of 95% rye/5% malted barley (2-3 yr), 60% corn/36% rye/4% malted barley (4 yr), and 68% corn/20% wheat/12% malted barley (5 yr)
Nose
Sweet corn with big league chewing gum corn starch character, stone fruit notes of unripened peach or pear, light floral honeysuckle quality, Necco candy-like sweetness, no significant barrel influence
Palate
Very light on the tongue, dancing across rather than settling in with impact; corn sweetness with cream corn qualities; light citrus zest that provides a tingle of spice; hint of wheat and floral notes; honeysuckle-like sweetness; the rye plays only a minor role; no Kentucky or Colorado hug at all
Finish
Medium to short finish, does not stick around long, no lingering heat
Satisfying
An easy-sipping, light-bodied blended whiskey that works well as a spring or summer sipper with straightforward, uncomplicated flavors of corn sweetness and citrus zest.
