Description
The bottle itself is a likeness to Colonel Taylor’s original design used over a century ago.
Each barrel is hand-picked and Bottled in Bond at 100 proof to honor its namesake.
Straight Rye Whiskey has encountered a solid resurgence in the American bourbon scene, yet Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. was making this style over 100 years prior. This little cluster, Bottled-in-Bond 100 proof straight rye bourbon pays tribute to the previous Distillery proprietor with an extraordinary rye bourbon reminiscent of days long past.
Tasting Notes
Aroma full of dried fruit, black pepper, and a touch of fresh dill. Taste of both sweet and savory with a balance of dark spices and subtle caramel overtones.
The finish is an oaky dryness that lingers just long enough.
