Tasting Notes:

Nose: A delightful blend of bubblegum, cherry fruit snacks, and black currant. The aroma is predominantly fruit-forward, exuding sweetness and allure.

Palate: A harmonious dance of baking spice, raisin, and orange, complemented by fruit punch and a hint of mid-palate cinnamon. The profile is direct and unambiguous.

Finish: A gentle cascade of cherry, light cinnamon, and a subtle aftertaste of lingering anise. The finish is more sweet than spicy, leaving a warm sensation.

Overall Impression: This year's Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye is a masterclass in balance. While previous editions leaned heavily on spice, the 2020 release strikes a perfect equilibrium between its spicy undertones and a burst of fruity sweetness. The warmth of the whiskey is comforting, rather than overpowering. The standout feature is its impeccable balance - a rare quality that makes this perhaps the finest Thomas H. Handy release in recent memory, if not ever.
