Tasting Notes
Boondocks Straight Rye Whiskey is an absolute gem, a testament to the brilliance of former Woodford Reserve master distiller Dave Scheurich. As you uncap the bottle, the aroma delights with notes of runny caramel, toasted vanilla, and a hint of vegetal oak, subtly accented by a smidge of menthol. On the palate, it unfolds a bold character, with oak char taking center stage, complemented by creamy butterscotch and fruity muffin-like notes, leading to a savory, grainy spice that lingers tantalizingly. The finish is a lively dance of peppery spice, burnt toffee, and toasted oak, leaving a lasting impression on your taste buds. Bottled at a robust 50% ABV, this brilliant batch of straight rye whiskey shines bright, making it an exceptional choice for crafting a Manhattan or savoring neat.
