Color: Amber Nose: Rye, baking spice, vanilla, hints of oak and tobacco Palate: Rye, vanilla, cherries, oak Finish: Lasting rye and baking spice with a dry rounded finish Initially hot on the palate, this dram starts to round out as you let it develop. Rye and baking spice attack the nose and palate and eventually you’re greeted with a hint of cherries. Unfortunately, there’s nothing unique about this bourbon. The small batch and single barrel definitely have the upper hand.
