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

  • By Charles Steele
  • 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
  • By Jordan Moskal
  • 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.

House Review
  • 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.
