Tastes

Candied fruit and vanilla nose - really wonderful. Spicy, buttery finish. But not as much in between as I had hoped for. Still, very nice.

Smoky nose, with something more I can't figure out. Long finish, with a wonderful fire. Peaty, without being overwhelming.

Not as peaty as I expected. Nice finish. Sweet nose.

This is just too tame to be a rye. it has a pleasant nose, but it is very light on the tongue and there is almost no finish. There are high rye bourbons that have way more spice than this and are much better.

I only rate at integer numbers, but I had to make an exception here. This is just a little bit better than average and not quite very good. lots of good burn and some sweetness on the tongue. The nose was average to pleasant burn in the finish, but nothing excellent about it.

wonderfully sweet nose, which cause me to be surprised when the Spirit hit my taste buds. It was very floral almost minty, with a very nice finish.

Vanilla on the nose. A little bit of nut with the spice. The spice stays with with you in the finish very nicely. It makes for a nice ending. Definitely one to try with food.

Floral notes with a hint of spice on the nose. Nuts and spice on the tongue. There's spice in the finish. But it just isn't very rich.
