Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye 2010 Release

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Rye

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 63.45%

Score: 94 Points

Intense and spicy on the nose, with toasted rye bread, dark chocolate, and brown sugar notes. The taste is mouth-puckering and warming with a touch of maple syrup at first followed by an intense cinnamon explosion that fades to reveal caramel and dark chocolate notes. The finish is amazingly long and spicy. A winner!
