Tasting Notes

Nose

When straight out of the bottle, the rye started off like soggy Cinnamon Toast Crunch. With a little more room to breathe, the dram has delightful vanilla bean and Moroccan mint. Lemon oil and anise really come through in the middle. Bright red maraschino cherry rounds out the end. However, the finish has a whiff of fresh cut grass.

Palate

The rye is very spicy, and not because of the ABV. Even more so, the whiskey has a sour taste to it and is overpowered with straw. Once past that bit, vanilla ice cream covered in pralines and dusted with cocoa powder lingers on the breath. The mint is there, too.
