$39.99-$44.99
75% corn, 21% rye, 4% malted barley
Nose
Corn sweetness with a little spice from the rye. Notes of caramel, toffee, cotton candy, and a small amount of citrus like orange zest.
Palate
Sweetness with spice attacking right away, almost like a sweet tart with some spice. The sweetness is present but the tartness wants to take over. There's a little bit of Kentucky hug or California hug. Sweet smokiness with smoked chocolate notes and some peanut brittle.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A high-rye gateway bourbon with balanced corn sweetness and spice that drinks impressively young for only two years old.
