Nose: fresh rye bread with earthy, sour and spicy backdrop.
Palate: a little tart, dark red cherry, the earthy and peppery rye comes a little late, maybe a hint of oak, moderate ethanol burn, just oily enough to coat the tongue.
Finish: some butterscotch, syrupy coke, with a late touch of candied red cherry
Overall there’s not a lot going on and it’s a bit of a stretch to pull out specific tasting notes

I agree. Was stunned by how flat this one was at times
