Differing from the Sazerac lineup of ryes, the EH Taylor Rye is ONLY made from rye and malted barley. (65 rye, 35 malt) NO CORN is used, so the spice level is much higher along with the maltiness. This mashbill and this brand in fact have really dialed it in recently with spice, fruit, brine, pepper, and clove balanced with caramel and toffee sweetness as well. The nose is highly perfumed, and the palate just explodes with rye spice.
