Tasting Notes
"The nose showcases soft notes of grains (the rye is especially recognizable) with hints of oranges and vanilla, as well as a whisper of juniper. The texture is creamy and inviting, with subtle flavors of banana, fudge and Demerara sugar. Even though it works wonderfully well to drink it neat, this should do well in a variety of classic cocktails."
