Tasting Notes and Technical Description:
Visual Appearance:
In the glass, this rye whiskey presents an intriguing dark amber hue, indicative of its additional time in the barrel. Its color reflects the extra layer of complexity that double-barreling brings to the spirit.
Nose (Aroma):
The aroma offers an orchestra of scents that harmonize effortlessly. The initial nose greets you with classic rye spiciness, supplemented by notes of caramel and toasted oak. A background whisper of dark chocolate and leather adds further depth, delivering a well-rounded olfactory experience.
Palate (Taste):
As befitting a double-barrel rye, the palate is a complex symphony. Spicy rye notes make a confident entrance, elegantly giving way to flavors of toffee, dark fruit, and vanilla. The secondary aging process imparts subtle overtones of nutmeg and clove, yielding a spicy-sweet balance that's nuanced but not overwhelming.
Finish:
The finish is both lingering and evolving. An initial warmth gives way to a lasting impression of toasted nuts and molasses, with a faint hint of charred oak to provide a pleasant, smoky tail.
Mouthfeel:
This double-barreled rye exhibits a remarkably smooth mouthfeel. Its medium-bodied nature, combined with an ABV of 45.2%, ensures a satisfying, warm trajectory down the throat, without the burn commonly associated with high-proof spirits.
