Rich Grain Distilling High Rye Bourbon
90 proof 2 years Bourbon Rich Grain Distilling Canton, MS 66% corn, 17% barley, 17% rye
Nose

Floral and peachy with a delicate malt whiskey character; Scotch-like qualities from the malted barley.

Palate

Sweet caramel and marshmallow up front with black pepper spice from the rye; the barley malt presence comes through clearly; corn sweetness is somewhat restrained.

Finish

Black pepper spice and rye burn with a slightly drying oak note on the back palate.

Respectable
A young but well-composed bourbon with an unusual malt-forward character that drinks above its age, though some drying oak suggests it will improve with additional maturation.
