Most rye whiskeys are made in America, yet this bottling overflows with brisk cinnamon and clove. It eases into coconut and vanilla flavors on the midpalate, finishing with drying hints of oak tannins and red apple skin. Best Buy.
NOSE
Soft green fruits combine with a rich creamy aroma and give way to white pepper, citrus and soft ginger spices
TASTE
Beautiful warming mouthfeel of textured vanilla cream, floral spice, clove and forest sorrel, building to a crescendo of warm spice and biscuit dryness
FINISH
Immensely long and nuanced, thick buttery coating with a return to the vanilla, but with candied jellies and hints of bubble-gum; spice and oil coating remain long after the finish
