Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Clear amber color with brilliant reflections and slow-moving legs.
Nose
Spicy rye grain forward with notes of mint, anise, and caraway seeds. Warm barrel spice mingles with subtle apple and stone fruit aromatics.
Palate
Dry, peppery entry with pronounced rye spice dominating the palate. Flavors of clove, allspice, and charred grain develop with oak influence. A hint of dried fruit adds complexity.
Finish
Crisp, peppery finish with lingering spice and warming barrel character. Clean and satisfying conclusion.

Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
