Colonel E.h. Taylor Jr. Bottled In Bond Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey

Straight Rye whiskey has experienced a strong resurgence in the American whiskey landscape yet Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. was making this style more than 100 years ago. This small batch Bottled-in-Bond 100 proof straight rye whiskey pays tribute to the former Distillery owner with a unique rye whiskey reminiscent of days long past. 50% ABV Tasting Notes: An altogether different recipe and profile than Sazerac Rye this recipe contains just rye and malted barley no corn. The result is an aroma full of dried fruit black pepper and a touch of fresh dill. A small sip brings an array of flavors both sweet and savory with a terrific balance of dark spices and subtle caramel overtones. The finish is especially pleasing with an oaky dryness that lingers just long enough.
