Tastes

Nose - new oak, vanilla, tobacco Taste - sweet smells of vanilla sometimes come across as more of a toffee/caramel note. Other times vanilla. Balanced by oak and tobacco notes. Misc - Pretty good overall and widely available. 6.5 T8ke scale. Extra half point for value and being available + being a WT product

Curtis Liqours MA barrel select from 2022/23 Nose - sweet vanilla and cherry, oak, Taste - Loads of vanilla, a little cherry almost like a cherry cola, suttle oak Misc - reminiscent of the Stagg from the same year but at a lower proof and drinks much better at the lower proof. 8/10 T8ke scale.

Nose - Sweet fresh fruit flavors like white fruits from the moscato. Some baking spice/rye spice Flavor - the sweet white fruit flavors shine with some rye spice sneaking in but a nice balance. Cant pick specific fruit flavors but sort of like apple, apricot, pear. Misc - A good coating mouthfeel and a medium finish. The proof point seems great and overall a well balanced finished rye. Extra points for the moscato finish being unique and not overpowering. 7.5 on the T8ke scale.
