Dry Fly Straight Triticale, 44%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2013 ● Reviewer: Lew Bryson ● Category: American Whiskey
Triticale is a wheat/rye hybrid, which I guess appealed to the wheat-mad Dry Fly distillers. Aromas of grass, bubble gum, and oak. Taste is young, brashly sweet, but smooth enough to spread easily over the tongue. There's spice—light cinnamon, a zip of allspice heat—and grassy brightness, but they're dressing on the juicy sweet center. Not flawed, and well-made, but I wish it had more to say. Price is per 375ml.
