Tasting Notes
Nose
This is a soft nose with some unmistakable alcohol esters. I found a perfume rye with clove rolled into a bread pudding.
Palate
Billowing notes of almond extract which hit and tingle the cheeks. The tingling sensation holds throughout the tasting experience. This is surprisingly robust for being 51% rye without becoming harsh. The mouthfeel is watery with a light pop in the cheeks. There is some white sugar sweetness along with rye berries throughout, but nothing overpowers or really puts itself on display. The finish is sweet with a soft grass note here and there.
Finish
Sweet with soft grassy notes fading gently.
