Black Maple Hill Rye

From: The Whiskey Reviewer

There have been varying opinions relative to the true sources of this famous nectars made by the Black Maple Hill brand. At present, the label for the straight rye tells us it is made in Oregon.

For me, the main problem isn't where it came from so much as finding a bottle, which is what I advise everyone to focus on as a general rule. In this specific instance, Black Maple Hill Oregon Rye is not regularly available in the Midwest, and if you do find it the price point may stress your pocket book.

The color is a dark brown with copper overtones. On first pour the glass gives off an assorted nose with hints of licorice, dried fruit, and almond or nutmeg all nestled in a stealthy reminiscence of oak. The vapors are not overpowering and easy on the nostrils.

The mouth feel is thin with a medium warm sensation on the tongue and an upfront sweetness of licorice and more almond and nutmeg. The juice settles in the back of the throat with candy sweetness, nutmeg, hints of pistachio and oak spice. It has a medium finish that is warm and smooth with a tingle of sweet cinnamon, nutmeg and that reminiscence of the oak spice.
