      Trusted by the professionals

      Its tempered oak and rye spice are nicely threaded throughout its sip, with a lovely mint, pear, and herbal accent, and an oily mouthfeel that’s icing on the cake. It showcases exactly what a classic rye profile whiskey is supposed to be, while adding a dash of uniqueness. Don’t miss a chance at grabbing a bottle and taking your time sipping it. This is a great rye that excels as a sipping rye where its virtues are fully on display.

      E.H. Taylor

      As founding father of the bourbon industry, Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. left an indelible legacy. His dedication to distilling began at the close of the Civil War when he purchased O.F C. Distillery. There, he developed innovative techniques that are still in use today. 

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Rye Spice, Dried Fruit, Fresh Dill

      Rye spice, pepper, and baking spice follow, providing the typical rye notes one would expect. Interestingly, delicate scents of mint and pear are interwoven adding some freshness to the aroma. 

      PALATE
      Sweet, Savoury, Caramel Overtones

      It's hard to deny the rye spice this whiskey features, as it hits hard and fast, yet quickly becomes tempered as the palate opens up. The focus then moves to vanilla, pear, nutmeg, and a dash of pine. This whiskey also has an oily viscosity which coats the tongue in cinnamon and baking spice flavours. As an added bonus, the mouthfeel greatly enhances the whiskey and takes an already admirable palate to even greater heights.

      FINISH
      Lingering Oak, Nutmeg, Herbal

      The finish is especially pleasing with an oaky dryness that lingers just long enough.
