Rye is more flavorful and spicy than bourbon. It's also a little more precocious. The best Bourbon is usually from the center cut of the warehouse. Great rye barrels are chosen from all over. We chose this barrel on the occasion of the 30th annivesary of Stage Left Steak.  It was aged on the sixth floor of the 8-story rick house. It was bottled at 115 proof.

Description
The nose is unctuous and redolent with marzipan, burnt honey, butterscotch and toffee.  It's decadently rich and viscous in the mouth, with cinnamon and allspice that get more pronounced in the finish. As it exits your palate, the finish is of dried fruit (like fruitcake) and a caramen remeniscent of sticky toffee pudding. The extended finish is all about cloves and warmth.
