Tasting Notes

Nose

A delicate creaminess. Hints of dill, oregano, clementine, and ruby grapefruit. Light rye bread and dairy-free spread. Caramel-filled milk chocolate. Gentle woodiness and currants underpin it.

Palate

Medium bodied. Sherried wood notes, with pumpernickel, poppy seed, gentle fennel seed, and more dill. Sweet balsamic glaze. Porridge oats and chocolate milk. Toffee and blackberry.

Finish

Medium-long. Blackberry jam swells and fades, leaving echoes of rye.

Comment

An unusual take on rye whisky — notably fruity.
