Final Thoughts
This rye whiskey brims with complexity, beginning with a nose of spearmint, dill, honeycomb, and caramelized sugar. The palate explodes with flavors of peppercorn, licorice, clove, and toasted oak, balanced by layers of brown sugar, citrus zest, and herbal undertones. At barrel strength, it packs intensity yet remains surprisingly refined. The finish is long, spicy, and slightly herbal, with pepper, anise, and sweet oak lingering for minutes. Best enjoyed neat or with a drop of water, it pairs excellently with pastrami on rye, grilled lamb chops, or spiced gingerbread. A benchmark for bold, elegant rye whiskey.
