Flavor Profile
What to Expect: This bottle leans toward Sweet & Dessert-Like, Spice, and Floral notes. Specific descriptors include caramel, clove, and honeysuckle.
Overholt's first return to its Monongahela-style roots, made from 80% rye and 20% malted barley; caramel, sandalwood, and caraway lead to brown butter, honeysuckle, and clove, finishing with warm baking spice.
What Defines This Bottle
Age
This bottle carries no single stated age. Federal labeling rules only require an age statement when a whiskey is younger than 4 years, so a bottle without one may be genuinely young or simply old enough that stating it became optional.
Does No Age Statement Mean It's Young? →Mash Bill (Grain Bill) The recipe of raw grains milled and cooked for fermentation, defined by its dominant grain -- corn for bourbon, rye for rye whiskey. Learn more
