Tasting Notes
"The aroma is a mix of chocolate chip cookie dough, toasted oak, and baking spices. There's a touch of toasted nuts as well. The taste is mildly sweet, but overall leans more spicy, not just barrel spices, but hearty rye spice as well. It's mildly bitter and the body of the whiskey is full and slightly oily. There's a good mix of flavors here which includes some apple skins. A solid offering that splits the difference between spicy high rye bourbons and traditional bourbon recipes. "
