Templeton Rye Barrel Strength 2020 Edition. Image courtesy Templeton Rye.This year’s release of Templeton Rye Barrel Strength has a nose full of baked apples, cinnamon, a hint of orange peel, and baking spices. The taste has good spicy notes of clove, cinnamon, and allspice that fade slowly to reveal touches of honey, toffee, raising bread, and a hint of orange peel. The finish is long with lingering spices and gentle touches of fruit. (July, 2020)
