The nose starts with a burst of floral rye spice, grain, marshmallow and charred oak. It comes across a little grassy, even though it is 6 years old it seems a bit younger. It all combines to be a bit smokey and murky as to how it will taste. The palate is a burst of floral rye spice, grain, grassiness and a touch of earthiness. It is an interesting mix and maybe not the best first impression. It doesn't evolve much beyond that - it stays too fresh, too grainy. The finish is medium long and spicy with lingering grassiness and graininess. This particular bottle may have gone off at some point but as it is in the moment, it is a bit tough to drink.
