Tasting Notes
"Although Vinn's 100% rice mash bill is unusual, ageing in new, charred oak brings it into the realm of the familiar. Sweet vanilla notes and fresh-cut wood greet the palate, with subtle, fragrant notes of the rice developing more on the finish. Comparable in style to a soft-bodied bourbon, it hits the mark appealing to fans of American whiskey."
