Nose: Sturdy aromas of dry rye cereal, black pepper, and maybe a hint of plum and honey.
Palate: Full-on licorice and anise with a peppery spice throughout. It is grain-forward with notes of butter toffee and maple.
Finish: Big in the finish with lingering peppery spice and a soft, warm mouthfeel.
Neat: Savor the bold, grain-forward spice and anise notes characteristic of high-proof rye.
On the Rocks: A single large cube will slightly cool and smooth the peppery heat, enhancing the underlying sweet toffee notes.
Cocktails: Essential for any cocktail that requires a strong backbone, such as a spicy Sazerac or a traditional Whiskey Sour.
