Bold and spicy. I found the nose grabbed me and pulled me in with honey and maybe dried orange zest. The body was full, just what I want in a Rye. Lots of pepper, some oak balance, and a dry finish with a little sweetness that lingers and makes me think of the next sip. A bit young I guess, but I cannot explain it's lower score here. It is an excellent Rye. (3.5 stars)
