Hotel Tango Rye

  • Distiller:

    MGP

  • Bottler:

    Hotel Tango

  • ABV:

    50%%

  • Age:

    NAS

  • Price:
    $$$$$
  • Intro:

    Distilled by MGP, aged at least two years and bottled at 100 proof, this is the standard rye whiskey from Hotel Tango.

  • Nose:

    Light and sweet, full of maple, dill, spearmint, pepper and a touch of honey. It’s MGP, baby! That herball dill note walks from herbal to minty but has plenty of sweet maple to back it up.

  • Taste:

    Light on oak, this is young for sure. Some oak, honey, maple and toffee. Light dill and a big minty note. Moderate mouthfeel, a touch spirity.

  • Finish:

    Short finish, quite hot, with a punch of dill and spearmint.

  • Overall:

    Hotel Tango Rye isn’t the brand's best showing. It’s adequate and proofed nicely for cocktails, but similar MGP stock seems to have a better balance of dill to oak and a bit more depth.

  • Score:

    4
