Noble Hound Dark Rye

Nose: cherries, dried fruit (berries), floral, port, funky Taste: rye spice, sweet, toasty, earthy or tart, dry finish

Amazing smell. First time I’ve loved a wmell better than the taste, and it wqs a great taste. Spicey.

Found it thin, the only depth of flavor being rubbing alcohol, baffling as to how it won any awards.

Aroma is heavy rye! A touch of bitterness in there as well. Oak up front with a cherry pie filling sweetness. Rye is percent throughout. Done interesting spice notes in the finish.

A nice smooth rye

On 2nd tasting, the nose is more open. I get more of the spice and pepper behind that port smell. The taste is peppery and spicy, with a nice charred oak included. The finish is long but mild.
