Virgil Kaine Robber Baron Rye

A blend of 94% rye-mash whiskey and Virgil Kane's High-Rye Bourbon (60% corn 36% rye and 4% barley). Floral rye grain spice bursts from the nose along with cedar plank and graphite. The entry is thick and sweet with maple syrup young oak and rye spice. Things don't heat up until the end of the mid-palate where a dash of heat drives a long spicy finish. An interesting mix of flavors that could benefit from a little more complexity.
