Nose: Ethanol Herbal rye Some sweeter notes at the end Palate: A sweetness I don’t often find in a rye, just enough and not overpowering the rye notes Perfect amount of burn, a little less than expected Finish: Sweetness carries through A little shorter than expected but pleasant notes with a nice rye kick at the very end This is right up there with Willett 4 yr as my favorite rye. Great stuff
