3cL Sample from Fine Drams. Nose: cumin, toffee, tobacco, cooked apricot Palate: Very SWEET custard. Honey and caramel. Super mild spice. This is all short lived, though. Finish: Also Sweet, but some more smoke and heat. Lingering Pretty unique compared to other tastes today. I think this is a cheaper bottle if in Europe & is likely worth it for a moderately older rye than stuff at a similar price point in the US.
