Tasting Notes
"OYO's nose is pretty, spicy and not as hot as might be thought given the proof and provenance. Spice hits first on the palate, but vanilla and caramel fight back with the aid of a hint of tannic wood; it all complements the robust rye. The overall impression is sweet but just enough so to balance the spiciness."
