Taste: medium body, rye hits, cream, white pepper, anise
Finish: fades to baking spiciness, caraway, softly tannic, bitter walnuts
Comments: the rye hides in the nose but hits solidly on the palate, the mouthfeel is creamy and soft, corn sweetness breaks through only after you’ve been sipping for a while. The battle between texture and taste makes it interesting. There’s not the cloying sweetness that’s expected in bourbon, at least for me. The spiciness is balanced by the mouthfeel
