New York Distilling Company Opulent Orchard Apple Brandy Finish New York Straight Rye
114.9 proof 7 years Straight Rye New York Distilling Company Brooklyn, NY $100
Nose

Rye forward, fresh mint, citrus in background, less pronounced apple than expected, black licorice in back

Palate

Savory, meaty, deeper darker character, aged dried apples, dark candied fruit, ripe fruit cake jam, peppery spicy finish, rich texture

Finish

Peppery spice lingers, sticky on the palate, long persistence

Really good
A sophisticated rye expression where the seven-year age statement and apple brandy finish create an aged apple butter complexity with impressive mouthfeel and staying power.
