Tasting Notes and Technical Description:
Visual Appearance:
In the glass, this rye presents an inviting amber hue, reflective of its careful maturation process. The moderate legs that trail down the sides of the glass hint at its full-bodied yet elegant texture.
Nose (Aroma):
The aromatic profile is a symphonic blend of spice and nuance. Classic rye spice, intertwined with hints of toasted oak, and traces of dark chocolate create an olfactory palette that beckons for a tasting. Underlying notes of caramel and ripe fruits offer a counterpoint to the spiciness, adding complexity and allure.
Palate (Taste):
Upon the first sip, Milam & Greene Rye exhibits a rounded, multi-layered flavor structure. The front palate is greeted by the spiciness typical of rye whiskeys—pepper and clove—yet it’s refined and well-balanced, not overwhelming. As the palate opens, the complex undertones begin to surface: the sweetness of caramel, the richness of vanilla, and the lushness of dark fruits like plum and fig.
Finish:
The finish is exceedingly smooth for a rye of this character, with lingering notes of spice and a gentle, oak-driven warmth that lends it an elegant conclusion. A subtle note of smokiness closes the experience, making for an expressive, nuanced finish that encourages a revisit.
Mouthfeel:
The rye offers a robust yet not overwhelming mouthfeel, imparting a well-rounded, slightly oily texture that lingers on the palate, enabling a more prolonged savoring of its complex flavor profile.
