    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Some dusty spice, a touch of Norwegian hand cream and cocoa at first with sweet liquorice, Curaçao, vanilla custard and crème caramel developing.

    Palate

    Fruity, then wonderfully spicy rye. Sweet liquorice again (specifically the coconutty/nougat-y pink Liquorice Allsorts that have a black bit in the middle), plenty of oak and then clove drops on the tail.

    Finish

    Vanilla with cinnamon and apricot Danish.

    Best rye ever!

    At first nose, I would not be able to detect this as rye. A very peculiar rye.

    Good but there is better out there.

    Yeah it’s good gut not as good in my opinion as 1776. I don’t know if it’s just my pallet but the rye seems to be a little muted.

    Best rye

    Probably my favourite whiskey Nose: for me, Rye spice, caramel, and like flat doctor pepper and coke Palate: A nice burn, classic bourbon flavours, little grassy, candy liquorice I agree with, that doctor pepper taste again is strong for me, then a long rye finish, very flavourful stuff it’s amazing Very balanced great taste, nice burn, nice finish what more could you want

    Delicious

    Fantastic rye, just heavenly. But, Norwegian hand creme on the nose? Lol, can you get any more pretentious?

    Excellent rye whiskey

    Pikesville straight Rye is rye whiskey, and will fall flat in the bottle a little bit if it’s on the shelf for too long, or maybe exposed to too much heat during storage. So you might want to keep it on your shelf for about a year is perfect. If you pick up a bottle of it, and it’s an older bottle some of the rye notes will disappear, or flatten out a bit. Basically with rye whiskey newer is better. Basically with rye whiskey newer is better. ^^
