Nosing 4:50
Whisky.com tastes the Russell's Reserve Rye 6 years old. This is another Tribute to the Russel family, who is responsible for the whiskey at the wild turkey distillery.
The nose:
Vanilla, Caramel, from the treated wood of the cask. This is combined with fruitiness of cherry and peaches. Later you get spiciness and nuttiness.
The taste:
Its very intense and sharp, like a typical rye whisky. It becomes smoother and mellower as it progresses.
The finish:
Waves of the sharp rye comes back in waves as it fades out.
