2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Basil Hayden's Dark Rye Whiskey (United States), 40% abv, $39.99

Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

A luxurious nose chock full of ripe red stone fruit, vanilla bean, nutmeg, and clove. Superbly full and round in the mouth, where subtle underlying flavors of port help to highlight spicy cinnamon and clove flavors. Memorable and unique. Would make for a sublime Manhattan!
