Keegan Easter 5.0

Pepper and butterscotch on the nose. The palate is rich with tropical fruit and baking spice. The finish offers cocoa and caramel. Well-balanced and delightful. Mine is barrel 18

Quintin Jeffries 3.8

Hints of chocolate and rye on the nose. The flavor echoes this, with additional notes of dark chocolate. Overall, a light and brief finish that is easygoing.

Jennifer Moreno 4.3

This rye offers a nice equilibrium. It has pleasant sweetness alongside robust leather and spice essences that diminish swiftly.

Carina Wicker 2.0

Underwhelming from the outset. The bottle has been open for a while now, so I will try it again.

Tatiana Valdivia 3.5

Certainly sweet and smooth as advertised -- on the milder side for a rye. Easy to drink.

Holden Franco 3.5

Smells fruity, easy to drink. Well put together.
