Laws Whiskey House San Luis Valley Bonded 7 year old (Batch 4), 50%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2023 ● Reviewer: David Fleming ● Category: Rye Whiskey
Dry and grainy on the nose, promising plenty of spice. It’s quite a different story on the palate, starting with a blast of ripe red apple and pear sweetness, grape jelly, and vanilla taffy, with plenty of spice in the background to create contrast. There’s lots of rich depth along with all that spice, leaving plenty to enjoy. The finish is long, rich, chocolaty, and lightly fruity, still anchored by those fresh grain notes.
