Neat. Opened over six months. Reviewed Rare Breed Rye earlier today and decided to have a pour of Cornerstone. It’s been awhile. Off memory, I believe I called this one of the best Ryes I have ever had. Time to see if it still lives up to that billing. The nose on this is just so perfect. The rye comes across as this fresh out of the oven cinnamon roll dosed in vanilla frosting. Beautiful citrus notes of orange and lemon. Hint of fresh cracked peppers. Hint of salted chocolate. Honestly on paper it’s the same notes as the Rare Breed Rye but the Rare Breed Rye isn’t fresh out of the oven, it’s been laying on the counter a few days. Smooth like silk on the tongue. Vanilla frosting initially on the tongue but gets darker into a charred caramel. Cinnamon roll comes through on the taste with a hint of refreshing orange. The oak is really coming through on the legs as a salted chocolate. I need to buy a back up bottle of this while I still can. Close to the top of what a rye can be.
