2016 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Alberta Premium Canadian Rye Whisky (Canada), 40% abv, CAD25.35

88
Very Good,
Strong Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Old gold/sepia color. The nose is deeply grainy, with pronounced side notes of newly tanned leather, butterscotch, cigar box, and toffee. In the mouth the flavor profile features full-fledged brown sugar sweetness that's countered by the tannins from the wood. Aftertaste is medium long, moderately toasty. A solid cocktail whisky.
