Tasting Notes

Rabbit Hole Heigold Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a high-rye bourbon crafted in Louisville, Kentucky, with a mashbill of 70% corn, 25% malted rye, and 5% malted barley. The nose opens with aromas of caramel, vanilla, and honey layered with baking spice, citrus zest, and toasted oak. On the palate, it is bold and full-bodied, delivering flavors of toffee, roasted nuts, cinnamon, and cocoa balanced by orange peel, clove, and subtle herbal rye notes. The high malted rye content gives it both spice and smoothness, creating a rich and distinctive profile. The finish is long and warming, with lingering notes of caramel, oak, and peppery spice.
