Uncle Nearest Rye Single Barrel Whiskey

Tasting

How it drinks

Sight

Deep amber; cask strength rye with rich colour from extended barrel finishing

Nose

Rich caramel and vanilla with cinnamon and nutmeg

Palate

Very leathery rye. Roasted nut quality upfront, then transitions to vanilla and toffee mid-palate while staying quite dry. Smooth Tennessee quality meets dry rye character. Distillery exclusive only — sold at Nearest Green Distillery in Shelbyville, TN

Finish

Quite smooth finish with a bit of heat on the sides of the tongue but no burn at the back of the throat. Dry and leathery
