Nose
Spicy profile with floral notes, honey sweetness, and a hint of citrus.
Palate
Viscous, oily and thick with notes of spice gumdrops and a faint licorice note, notably lacking the chocolate notes typical of some malted ryes.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A full-bodied, spirited 100-proof malted rye from Newport, Kentucky with bold spice and viscosity that lacks typical chocolate notes found in other malted ryes.
