True Story Rye Whiskey Volume 1
100 proof
Rye
True Story / New Riff & MGP blend
Nose
Cinnamon from Ambarana casks, balanced against rye spice. Chai spice notes with complexity from the layered barrel approach.
Palate
Flavor bomb with multiple layers. Cinnamon, vanilla, and spice forward, followed by rye spice on the back of the palate. Doesn't drink like 100 proof—smooth and layered throughout.
Finish
Lingering spice from the rye that comes through after the upfront Ambarana and sherry notes have faded.
Overall Score
4.4 / 5
A complex, multi-layered rye that defies expectations with its balance of bold Ambarana cinnamon notes against underlying rye character.
