Tasting Notes
Wilderness Trail Small Batch Rye is a captivating whiskey that delights the senses with its harmonious blend of flavors. The nose greets you with a zesty fusion of lemon peels, juicy satsuma, and crisp apple, perfectly balanced by the woody spice of rye. Soft vanilla caramel and floral honey notes linger in the background, creating an alluring aroma. On the palate, citrus zest adds a refreshing zing, accompanied by toasted rye bread and spiced butter. Charred oak and butterscotch flavors follow, with hints of licorice and pepper adding depth and complexity. As the finish lingers, peppery heat takes hold, with green peppers and crushed peppercorns mingling with sweet toffee and orchard fruits. Crafted with a mash bill of 56% rye, 33% corn, and 11% malted barley, and aged for at least four years on the upper floors of the distillery's rickhouse, this Kentucky straight rye whiskey offers a well-balanced and rounded profile that captivates the senses.
