Tasting Notes

"The whiskey is a beautiful copper color in the glass. Spearmint and cedar show first on the nose, with vanilla, cacao, and orange peels. The palate offers cocoa powder and chewy, dense brownies and tart cherries. The finish is drier, with tannic oak, wet soil, and leather atop lasting notes of chocolate syrup and menthol. A pretty striking difference in profile from what you'd expect to see with a typical 100% (or 95-5) standard rye."
