Tasting Notes
"Imagine a Manhattan without the sweetness, and that approximates the flavor profile of this unique rye from The Splinter Group. It's a high-rye whiskey with great spice, but the finishing in wine barrels lends rich, grapey notes with vanilla, cherry, prune, and marzipan. Sipping it recalls walking into a wine cellar. It may not be for everyone, but it's enjoyable and boldly different from other ryes on the market, and for that it's a very welcome addition."
