2016 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Jim Beam Pre-Prohibition Style Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey (United States), 45% abv, $22.99

98
Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

A light crimson whiskey that packs a surprising amount of citrus, clove, freshly cut grass, and toffee on the nose. In the mouth it is not the spiciest of ryes, and instead shows a creamy texture with plenty of barrel vanilla.
