Surprisingly gentle for its proof with fruity, floral, caramel, and lightly spiced notes; fruit reads as pear and apple blend.

Rich, thick, and deeply complex with herbal root beer depth, bold spice on the tail, and remarkable layering that evolves with extended sipping.
Finish
Strong and persistent with herbal spice and bold character; benefits from rocks or a water splash.

A powerful and architecturally complex malted rye finished with aspen staves that delivers surprising nose elegance despite its elevated proof, rewarding patience with evolving depth and bold character.
