Nose- It has that baking spice fragrance that suggests rye but that is tempered by sweet brown sugar.
Body- This dram is very smooth for a rye. This may be due to the high wheat content. Baking spices give way to pie crust and oats.
Finish- Fairly short but very pleasant. There is a suggestion of a sweet chocolate and fruit candy like the Cadbury fruit and nut bars.
Note- This whiskey is fairly one noted and may lack some depth due to its younger age (a guess). However, the note is remarkably nice. This is one of the most enjoyable ryes I have had and is the best craft whiskey I have had the privilege of drinking up to this point. Seriously! Given as a gift in Clyde not Clyde, Asheville not Asheville, NC. Thanks John! Prost!
