About Cm Nassif Family Reserve
Cm Nassif Family Reserve is a bold American whiskey blend from Cat's Eye Distillery, bottled at 53.5% ABV (107 proof) and available in 750ml for $33.00. Crafted by co-founder Gene Nassif for his wedding, it combines 50% 14-year MGP light whiskey with 50% 3-year 10-month 'bourye' (36% rye bourbon and 95% rye distillate aged in new oak), offering a unique profile that's approachable for novices yet intriguing for enthusiasts. What makes it special is its unconventional mashbill delivering familiar bourbon warmth with surprising rye spice and light whiskey elegance, at an unbeatable value. Ideal for casual sippers, cocktail lovers, and those exploring blends under $40, it stands out in the American whiskey category against pricier single barrels by balancing high proof versatility—neat, on rocks, or mixed—without overwhelming heat. Reviewers praise its complexity over standard blends, though some note a subtle tannic edge.

👅 Palate
Butterscotch and caramelized butter dominate, mingling with rye herbs, spices, and a touch of mint for a rich, dense mouthfeel. Tropical fruits and juicy sweetness surprise amid citric tang and black pepper kick. Oak presence balances the bold 107 proof without harshness.
✨ Finish
Medium-length with lingering cinnamon roll dough, cool mint heat, and dark butterscotch. A subtly bitter tannic edge fades into earthy clove spice.
