Whistlepig 10 Year Small Batch Rye

Total Wine & More WA Single Barrel #15-26 | 59.7% ABV Nose - Faint hints of sweet mint and fresh herbs, juicy candied bing cherries, strawberries, intense sweet like from those strawberry candies with the green twist top, honey vanilla creamy caramel sweet smell. Taste - Initial lightly diluted honey vanilla cherry coke concentrate, very creamy/oily mouthfeel, transitions into a sweet spicy cinnamon hot, which then fades to a faint leathery and sweet wet tobacco sweetness/bitterness. Finish - The cinnamon heat lingers, leaves a lightly bittersweet herbal vanilla and a very dark, almost burnt simple syrup sweetness with a lingering dark cherry candy sweetness. 92/100

Dry musty dust nose. Definitely in a good way!
