Buzzard's Roost Cigar Rye Review
Buzzard's Roost Cigar Rye delivers the perfect marriage of American oak barrels and Kentucky-grown tobacco leaves. Made from a mash bill of 95 percent rye and 5 percent malted barley, this rye brings an aroma of musky potpourri without overwhelming the senses. Green notes, red berry, and pepper play gently with the slight smoke profile on the nose before passing on the palate and allowing for rye notes to take the forefront. This whiskey is a must-try.
