Tasting Notes
Nose:
Aromatic layers of baking spice, toasted grain, and a wisp of citrus oil. Hints of saddle leather and herbal rye emerge with time in the glass.
Palate:
Assertive yet balanced, with rich notes of cracked black pepper, clove, spearmint, and dried orange peel. Malted rye softens the structure with undertones of chocolate, brown sugar, and rye bread crust.
Finish:
Long and warming, tapering into oak spice, dark caramel, and a whisper of wintergreen. Full-bodied and dry.
What Makes It Special?
Extra Age: Rare for a rye of this high-rye mashbill, 8 years of aging introduces layered depth without sacrificing vibrancy.
Malted Rye Element: The 5% malted rye offers softness and balance to the bold 95% rye grain backbone.
Bottled in Bond: Held to the highest standards of authenticity—one distillation season, one distillery, 100 proof.
Non-Chill Filtered: Retains its full flavor profile and natural oils for a richer mouthfeel.
How to Enjoy
