Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a warm, honey-gold glow.
Nose
Bold, peppery rye on the nose, with toasted oak and vanilla underpinning. Orange zest and cinnamon mingle with clove and malt sweetness, while caramel depth and rye oil add warmth. A subtle resinous oak note hints at barrel-strength richness and the single-barrel spine.
Palate
Full-bodied and richly spiced, the palate unfolds with peppery rye—black pepper, cinnamon, clove—woven with vanilla, caramel, and toasted oak. Barrel-strength, slightly oily and mouth-coating, it finishes long and warming with rye's signature bite.
Finish
Long, building finish that fans the rye spice into a warm, lasting glow. Pepper and cinnamon cling to the palate, with clove and a hint of vanilla and toasted oak weaving through the warmth. The barrel-proof intensity lingers, leaving a refined, peppery fade.
