Color: great copper/yellow color, I've seen lighter and darker
Legs: quick to form, good spacing
Nose: sweet corn and Carmel at first with some oily butter undertones. Not getting a ton of floral scents but am picking up a little spice/pepper and some cinnamon
First sip: spicy first sip with some burn on the tongue, easy finish down without burn
Taste: hello rye! From the nose to pallet and finish there are some complex differences. Sweet on the nose with some noticeable spice but the spice is rather pronounced on the tongue and across the pallet. I'm catching some heat that doesn't last too long after swallowing but it's a bit like that bite of cocktail sauce with heavy horseradish, kind of takes your breath away for a brief moment.
I'm curious how this will open up given some air and will also give it a try over a single large cube to see how the ice can open it up too and maybe unlock some additional flavors.
