Old Overholt Cask Strength 10 Yr Straight Rye Whiskey Limited Release 121 Proof

Immediate scents of peanut brittle and boiled peanuts are striking and start the rye off in a precarious place. Peanuts in both taste and scent, can be quite powerful and even piercing, and are often found in Beam-distilled whiskey. As with this rye’s aroma, its peanut scent cuts through all of its other scents and is impossible to ignore. Thankfully the nose isn’t one-dimensional, with honey, caramel flan, spiced cherry/raspberry, and seasoned oak adding layers of depth that should win over the unconvinced. As such, it's a memorable aroma thanks to a collection of scents that work very well together, resulting in a unique sensory experience.

Peanut brittle carries over into the palate but is much lighter in nature. It’s joined by complementary flavors of browned butter, brown sugar, and sugarcane. A hefty amount of allspice is strung throughout the palate which nicely transitions into a stewed apple note that puts an emphasis more on its cinnamon than apples. The rye’s fullness of flavor truly comes out in the palate, enveloping your mouth with its rich and robust flavors.

Dry oak is introduced during the finish, but it refrains from being tannic. Layers of baking spices and cinnamon become more pronounced, doubling down on this particular style of rye. While rye spice was foreshadowed during parts of this sip, it’s at this point that big rye spice and white pepper notes wash over the finish, creating an additional flavor pop. The rye ultimately concludes on a satisfying chocolate note that fades in an adequate amount of time. Like the palate, it’s a flavorful affair offering big highs and short reprievals before ramping up again.
