What does Bulleit Rye's mash bill mean for flavor?

At 95% rye, Bulleit's mash bill sits near the top of what's legally distilled as rye whiskey, leaving little room for corn's sweetness. That translates to a dry, black-pepper-and-dill-forward profile that stands up well in a Manhattan or an old fashioned.
