Deadwood Tumblin Dice Straight Heavy Rye 750ml

Details

The whiskey reflects a pleasant, light honey tint. On the nose, aromas of vanilla, ripe banana, caramel, and toasted coconut come forward. This is a fine sipping whiskey that highlights the sweet notes when tasted neat. The palate showcases a characteristic (and instantly familiar) rye dryness, yielding to warm, apple pie spice. This is well-balanced bourbon that settles in at mid-palate with a supple viscosity and a proof-driven zing. For fun, I added a few drops of water and noticed that the nose became a little sweeter, highlighting the vanilla and brle notes and softening the cereal finish. Sweet and oaky with notes of spice, dark fruit, char cocoa, caramel and a touch farmy. Sweet and spicy with notes of peanut brittle, oak, dried dark fruit, baking spices, cocoa, char, caramel and bits of vanilla and citrus. Long Spice, oak and dark fruit. Good sense of balance, full body and a lightly oily feel.
