Wilderness Trail Settlers Select Single Barrel Barrel Proof Rye

Brief tasting. Full notes some other time after I buy a bottle. 116 proof. Absolutely no ethanol on the nose but also relatively flat. Perhaps due to the stubby little tasting glass... it may offer a bit more character from a Glencairn. Sweet... almost syrupy. Thick mouthfeel. Extremely easy to drink, sweetness dominates. No evidence of the proof. Background evidence of a licorice note, but very approachable. Will need to try again in a more relaxed setting but seems very promising. Much more appealing than the single barrel bourbon.

Astringent aroma, sweet, light, baking spice
