Nose
A captivating bouquet of sweet baking spices, dominated by cinnamon and nutmeg, intertwined with dried dark fruits like fig and plum. Hints of toasted oak, vanilla bean, and a subtle herbaceous note of dill or spearmint emerge, betraying its rye heritage. Underlying caramel and a whisper of orange zest add complexity.
Palate
The entry is bold and full-bodied, with an immediate wave of spicy rye – cracked black pepper and clove intermingling with a pleasant heat from the 121 proof. This is quickly balanced by rich sweetness: dark caramel, toffee, and brown sugar. Layers of mature oak emerge, along with dried apricot, dark chocolate, and a faint leathery note. The mouthfeel is viscous and chewy, coating the palate beautifully.
Finish
Long, warm, and lingering, the finish extends with an interplay of sweet and spicy. Black pepper and oak spice slowly fade into a prolonged warmth, leaving behind notes of vanilla, charred sugar, and a pleasant herbal dryness. A whisper of dark fruit persists, inviting another sip.
