Nose

Marshmallows, light rye spice, vanilla cream, faint mixed berries are all present on the nose of this whiskey, making it quite light and pleasant.

Palate

The palate of this whiskey consists of rye spice, lightly toasted oak, light vanilla, Kentucky Cream Pull candy, a touch of white peppercorns, faint tobacco leaf, leather, baking chocolate, and equal parts sweet, spice and dry.

Finish

The finish of this bourbon offers more of the same rye spice, leather, dry tobacco, building heat and a lingering aftertaste.

Uniqueness

High n’ Wicked Straight Bourbon is a unique whiskey which combines the sweetness of whiskey with the spiciness and earthiness of a high-rye mashbill.

Value

The price tag on this bourbon is a bit steep, at $80 for a 5-year-old, but its sourcing and transparency make it worth consideration.

Overall

High n’ Wicked Straight Bourbon is an enjoyable whiskey, with its complexity and balance of sweet, spicy and earthy flavors being its strongest selling points. However, its price tag may be a bit too steep for many buyers
