Stellum Black Rye, 57.13%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2022 ● Reviewer: David Fleming ● Category: Rye Whiskey
Buttery and sweet on the nose, with lots of sweet corn and hints of honey-roasted peanuts, plus candied orange slices and waffles with maple syrup. The well-balanced palate is rich, deep, and full of flavor, with tasty layers of honeyed lemon, honey cake, cherry, bitter chocolate, and a sprinkling of pepper spice. Even better on the finish—well integrated fruit and spice, with plenty of length.
