- Fans of big, bold rye whiskeys should consider planning a trip to Tennessee. Just don’t forget to hydrate. You and the whiskey.

- The Whiskey Wash
- It is a nice whiskey, and I probably wouldn’t turn down another glass if offered. However, there are other whiskeys I’d reach for first.

- Breaking Bourbon
- The whiskey is ultimately an average venture into the rye space as it lacks the oomph necessary to stand out in today’s crowded marketplace.

-
Nose:
Sweet honey and fragrant nose, tons of candied ginger, lemon peel and lavender.
-
Taste:
Rich palate, super floral and spicy. This thing is rye from start to finish, powerful and full of maple, honey, lavender, orange peel, and spicy pepper.
-
Finish:
Long, spicy, hot finish that’s pure spice, floral, fruity, no oak or maple. It's punchy and ethanol forward, but every prickle of heat is paired with flavor and bold rye spice.
-
Overall:
Overall, this uncut rye is bold, spicy, powerful, and a bit aggressive. If that rye profile is your wheelhouse, hold on, you're in for a treat.
