Tastes

Overwhelming coffee and malt, maybe some bitter chocolate and raisin or prune on the back end. Hot finish. Single barrel select #19966 at 63.4% picked up on sale for $29.99 and glad I didnt spend a penny more. This tastes exactly like a coffee stout was turned into a spirit. It is a very unique rye, you must really love the coffee and chocolate profile to enjoy this bottle, not really my cup of tea. I almost exclusively drink my pours neat, but this one needed a cube to tame it down and make it palateable, and surprisingly so. This would probably make a good cocktail, I will be looking for some chocolate or coffee old fashioned recipes to finish off the rest of this bottle.
