Enjoyed last pour of bottle on the rocks. Rich and viscous. Notes of spearmint, black pepper, and pine dance with vanillin and oak tannins. Alcohol heat lingers in the back of my throat.

2 oz. on the rocks at Merle's. Characteristic spicy, minty rye in nose and flavor. Earthy and woody. Well-made but overpriced for what it is.
