Nose

Light and minty with fresh candy sweetness; yeasty undertones

Palate

Candied orange, white pepper, leather, and licorice character with excellent balance; reminiscent of Kentucky Owl or old Carter rye releases

Finish

Long citrus-rye finish with white pepper linger and candied orange notes

Very good
An impressive ten-year rye that balances mint and candy character with sophisticated leather and licorice notes, delivering Old Carter-adjacent quality at a fraction of the price.
