Redwood Empire Devils Tower

Tasting Notes

Redwood Empire's Devils Tower High Rye Bourbon is a fascinating experiment in flavor. This small-lot release, named after the iconic monument, pours a burnt orange hue and offers a nose of hay, licorice and eucalyptus before unveiling a palate of grapefruit pith, cardamom, crisp mint and tobacco. While the texture is moderately thin, the unique flavor profile, reminiscent of both scotch and high-aged rye, is something special. With a mash bill heavy on rye, it delivers a unique and complex drinking experience that stands out from more traditional bourbons. The finish is decent with citrus and honey, making it a worthwhile addition for those seeking a more adventurous whiskey selection.
