There is a lot to like about Log Still Rattle & Snap Tennessee Whiskey on paper. At 47% abv and $37.99. The nose here is light and woody up front, let us see if it lives up to expectations.
Nose
The nose here is light and woody up front. Some grass or summer hay is present, along with oak. There is a kiwi or tropical fruit, summer flowers, and white sugar. I found the nose over it is very light and easy going. This whiskey is a long ride, Im just not certain I want to be on it. For its age this is a nice whiskey, I think the price is right too. I found a lot of imbalances, pieces needed time to mature I just didnt find that here. The base components, I feel, have a great profile but until they can mellow out a bit theyre just harsh. If we could amplify the sweetness of the nose through the palate this whiskey would be a ringer. Maybe the 8-year has a mellower profile that can really play to its strengths. For now though, this is simply a fine whiskey.
