Catoctin Creek Roundstone Rye – Distiller's Edition
92 proof NAS Rye Catoctin Creek Purcellville, VA 100% rye

Butterscotch with youthful oak notes, fruity hints, and anise/licorice character. Pleasant but slightly woody.

Sweet and smooth across the palate with spice on the sides and back of tongue rather than the middle. Vanilla cream character with oily, buttery mouthfeel that dissipates quickly. Not chill-filtered.

Medium finish with oak notes and slight chalkiness creating a drying quality. Outperforms the front of the palate.

Agreeable
A well-crafted rye with earthy character and a stronger back-palate that justifiably earned its awards, though slightly disjointed between nose and palate.
