Woodford Reserve Rye uses a preprohibition style ratio of 53% rye in its mash bill to pay homage to history's original rye whiskeys, making spice and tobacco the dominant note among a sea of fruit, floral, and sweet aromatics, which yields a nice sweetness and overall balance. On the nose, spicy with distinct notes of rye, black pepper, cedar and cassia bark sweetened with a dusting of marzipan. Hints of pear, apple and almond dance in its depths. Taste of clove, rye, mint, molasses, sorghum and honey mingle together with hints of apple and malt. Long and sweetly spiced finish.
