Catoctin Creek Roundstone Rye Cask Proof

Smells of butterscotch and caramel. Strong kick. Tastes very slightly if caramel, but mostly spicy

Floral and caramel on the nose. Very spicy, caramel, with a hint of sweetness. The fire carries down the throat into the belly. Adding water brings out a little oily flavor. Aftertaste is slightly bitter but maintains hints of the taste.

Nose - butterscotch hard candy, clove, cardamom, leather tobacco, black pepper, moderate to high ethanol burn. Taste - butterscotch hard candy, rye spice (but not as dominant as in the other expressions), cardamom, caramel, dry vanilla, leather, tobacco, moderate to high alcohol bite, finishing medium length with butterscotch, tobacco, and tannic leather flavors. This is my favorite of the three, but not by much. I think their offerings will be much more enticing once they’re able to consistently release older products.
