Scent and Flavor
Appearance
Deep amber color with a golden hue. The liquid is viscous and has long legs when swirled in the glass.
Nose
The nose opens up with strong aromas of rye bread and baking spices, such as cinnamon and nutmeg. There are hints of dried fruits, particularly raisins and dates, as well as a subtle sweetness of vanilla and caramel.
Palate
The whiskey is bold and assertive, with a spicy kick of black pepper and cloves followed by notes of dark chocolate, coffee, and toasted oak. The mouthfeel is rich and full-bodied, with a slight oiliness and a pleasant warmth from the high alcohol content.
Finish
The finish is long and lingering, with a dry and slightly bitter aftertaste that echoes the spicy notes from the palate. Hints of charred wood and tobacco, which add complexity and depth to the overall flavor profile.
