TASTING NOTE: Highly attractive topaz/amber color; very good purity. Holy-moly, the opening fragrance has dried red (cherries, red currants) and black fruits (plums) and new leather galore; secondary sniffs following another seven minutes of exposure to air add scents of light vanilla, almond paste, nougat and clove. Entry is toasty/roasted, nutty and oaky; mid palate flavor profile offers chunky tastes of brown butter, honey and vanilla bean. Ends on a sweet caramel note that caps an extraordinary rye experience of the first rank. Highest Recommendation. 5 Stars (out of 5) (F. Paul Pacult, Spirit Journal, Dec. 2012) |
