J. Becher – Straight American Rye Whiskey Bottled in Bond

The nose is fine, concentrated and offers a fine richness (in the background), a beautiful grain as well as a certain power (in the background). It reveals fine notes of dried orange zests and subtle touches of apricot associated with discreet hints of cereals, toffee as well as a subtle hint of barrel/oak and an imperceptible hint of Bourbon vanilla (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced, slightly powerful and offers fat, a beautiful fleshiness, finesse, a beautiful guideline, a slight deepness as well as a slight straightness/precision. In the mouth this Whiskey expresses notes of dried yellow grape and dried orange/orange marmelade associated with touches of dried lemon, honey as well as subtle/discreet hints of butter (in the background), slight touches of yellow fruits and a very discreet hint of cereals (in the background). Good length.

Score : 16.5
