100% rye whisky from... Holland?!
That's right, this Discovery Road bottling of 7 year old 100% rye whisky comes from Holland. Dominic Roskrow, whisky writer and founder of the Craft Distillers' Alliance, started the selection to enlighten us to new world whisky from places that wouldn't be the first to come to mind when you think of whisky production. However, these lesser known locations do make some mighty fine whiskies, and the Discovery Road Smile is a perfect example. Spicy rye, soft warm toffee and red liquorice notes. Delicious.
Light in color and subtle. Thin legs and great aroma. Really good aroma. Smells sweet on the nose with no brashness. Scent of light syrup, corn, caramel, and wonderful wet oak. Slight spice on the palate but not over bearing. Clove, ginger, white pepper, lime zest. Menthol on the breath, sweet pickles, candied ginger, and honey. Great experimental concept done on the other side of the world that resembles a touch of American rye bourbon but not quite Scotch. Wonderful contrast of West meets East. Glad I cracked it for New Years '16. Wasn't disappointed. Thank You. Overall 8.8.
