Rich dark cherry and maraschino cherry notes with buttery pie crust, leather, and wet cherry wood; subtle ginger and butterscotch undertones.

Dry with prominent ginger and cinnamon spice from the rye; oak tannins similar to a dry red wine; only subtle honey and sweetness; the rye character comes through clearly.

Medium finish with lingering ginger and cinnamon spice; bitterness and oak tannins persist; finish reaches the neck level but doesn't extend deeply into the chest.
