The nose is gentle and starts with floral rye, stone fruit, charred oak and touches of brown sugar and vanilla. The palate is a little chewy and fills the mouth with a pleasant and not overpowering amount of rye, along with charred oak and subtle notes of creamy vanilla and brown sugar. The fruit doesn’t feature as prominent here, but it is in the background holding everything together. The finish is medium with a lingering spice and smooth oakiness that leaves a bit of a chew in your mouth. Doesn’t quite reach the corners of the mouth but is very enjoyable for what it is.
