Tastes

I can’t say much other than I wasn’t nearly as impressed with this as I am ORVW ‘20

This is worth the hype. Body, no burn, vanilla & depth

Nose is great. Flavor is spicy, tongue drying, not sweet. To me, the recent hype is just hype

Toasted rye marshmallow. Green tea thing. Woodruff. A funky woodsy thing on plate, rye with middle tongue oak tannin, but not that much really. The LONGEST finish, over a minute of the exact thing you like about rye. Tongue salivates for more

Absurdly aromatic: dulce de leche, brown butter sugar. Super spicy, gigantic body, dry sides of tongue. Vanilla bean frozen custard, with the flecks.

1964 86 proof. Red fruits & red hots. Low proof. Old but tidy basement.

Menthol cigarette, buttercream, vanilla extract. Woodsy floor, old fashioned orange, low proof. Cedar, rye
