Reviewed January 7, 2020 (edited February 29, 2020)Overall a fascinating spirit. Incredibly dark notes on the palate with chocolate and hazelnut, almost to a cocoa powder degree. The nose is much more refined, with subtle dark cherry. As a 100% Rye, it really catches you off guard. My guess is this spirit was a wild horse out of the still; 1.5yr of aging likely calmed this down to something enjoyable. The pepper eludes me! -

Reviewed December 27, 2019 (edited August 16, 2020)I didn't like it neat. Added some ice and it's still not great but I won't dump it. -

Reviewed December 14, 2019 (edited January 20, 2020)N(2.75): sharp and smells young. Kind of smells like tequila, off. Opening up for a couple of minutes, pine or juniper scent jumps out. Sweet ginseng tea. Finally got the rye. P(2). Spicy and hint of sweetness. I couldn’t pull any other flavors. F(3.25): Hazelnut chocolate. Definitely a hug at the end. Best part of the drink.

Reviewed December 12, 2019Wow as far as ryes go...wow. SUPER CHOCOLATY, very savory but candy sweet at the same time. Does not feel 100 proof. 100% will be a daily drinker.
