Tastes

I can't seem to step away from this whiskey. It is extremely refreshing in a world that advocates for smoke, tobacco, and char. This whiskey is in a world of its own. The nose is sweet and perfume forward, yet has a persistent young wood/fruit wood smell. Anyone that has smoked or grilled with an apple/cherry wood will recognize the odor. On the front, there is very unique crisp and lemony sense. With most ryes you have a massive peppery bomb, but this is much more subdued. It has almost an herbiness to the pepper notes. Like a fresh arugula. The finish is my favorite part. It has a cooling, menthol like finish with almost 0 pepper accents. It is very refreshing. This is an amazingly rare whiskey that goes great with any white fish or lighter seafood dish.
