Thomas H. Handy rye whiskey tasting notes typically include bold and spicy flavors of rye, cinnamon, and clove, with complex aromas of toffee, dark fruit like fig and cherry, and citrus. The palate is full-bodied and often has notes of dark chocolate, honey, and toasted oak, while the long, warm finish reveals hints of mint, allspice, and a persistent rye spice.
