High West - Rendezvous Rye | Straight Rye Whiskey

NOSE:
Poached pear, bitter orange, ground ginger, lavender, wet sandalwood, tanned leather on a well-used wooden work bench.

TASTE:
Persimmon, dried apricot, snickerdoodle, ginger chews, walnut sauce, spiced caramels in a cedar gift box.

FINISH:
Light oak, cocoa powder, and mild cinnamon get right to the point in the finish. Straightforward and lacking punch, the finish’s impact is largely lackluster. A slow ramp up of heat begins to take hold late into the finish and is welcomed, but is inconsequential in the end.
