Tasting Notes
"Aroma is dominated by sour rye bread and has an undertone of orange-honey and green pepper. With a firm, smooth and refreshing body there is no mistaking the rye, and it is one of the best Canadian productions I have ever tasted. The lengthy finish is dominated by spiced honey. The overall impression is fruity, spicy, peppery deliciousness. "
