Nose
Dark mint and thick-skinned tropical fruit with chocolate undertones. Minty and rich with a mango-like character.
Palate
Powerful entry with Samoa and Thin Mint cookie notes—coconut, chocolate, and mint—along with burnt orange spice. Significant heat with no shortage of presence.
Finish
Long, warming finish with lingering mint and chocolate.

A hazmat-strength rye with impressive dark chocolate and mint character that commands attention despite its heat.
