51% rye, with corn
Nose
Floral with fruit notes from the cream sherry cask finish.
Palate
Chewy with spice that doesn't attack the tongue but rises up on the palate. Spicy and wonderful. Secondary sweetness like simple syrup on the back of the tongue.
Finish
Poblano pepper spice that builds and rises gradually.
Very good
An introductory rye with approachable spice and fruit complexity from sherry cask finishing, designed to bridge bourbon drinkers into rye while excelling in Manhattans.
