Not the strongest nose, but full. Smells like rye bread. Some sweetness, and herbal notes. It definitely kicks you in the face, way more than you would expect for a 110 proofer. Lots going on here. Lingering spice. Floral and herbal with a pleasant sweetness. Flavor bomb but not harsh. Definitely need to come back to this. 12/22/17
Same bottle, almost 7 months later. Unmistakably a rye on the nose. Rye bread and brown sugar, a slight floral note. On the palate, sweet flowers. Flavorful but light. Not as complex as I remember. I must not be a huge rye fan, this is a bit hyped. 7/7/18
Different bottle. A musty note on the nose that I don't think I've noticed before. Still stings. Sweet bread, cola. Nice nose. On the palate, a strong industrial note. Sweetness and a hint of tea. I can see why some would like this, but still not a huge fan. 11/29/2021
