Every time I sip a good rye, the taste tends to evolve over the entire time I sip the pour. It’s usually that the lingering finish taste seems to affect any flavor that comes with subsequent sips. I’m not sure how to compare them other than that outset taste from the very first sip, but you miss all that comes out later.
