Conrad Hoffman 3.5

Nose: Abundant caramel and a green aroma, very autumnal. The spices are also prominent. Palate: Extremely rye-forward, intensely so. If you're a rye enthusiast, you will adore this. It has a bit of heat but also many grassy, bitter notes. Finish: Mirrors the palate, with rye extending all the way to the end. The finish is also quite long.

Johanna Okeefe 4.3

Rich vanilla aroma. Also detecting notes of dark cherry and dried fruit. Spicy taste that saturates the entire mouth. Vanilla, dried fruit, and honey on the palate.

River Chow 3.0

Nose: licorice, earthy and herbal, vanilla Taste: toasty, pepper, spice and mint, vanilla and licorice with a bit of sweet

Eduardo Travis 3.5

Nose of dusty grains and sarsaparilla. Cream soda, marshmallow, and a rye finish. A thick finish. A dessert-like rye.

Karlee Herzog 4.0

Aroma: pleasant sweetness. Taste: Spice at the beginning and end. Vanilla and caramel notes. A lingering warmth.

Lois Liu 4.0

The aroma and palate bring to mind warm, buttery biscuits with cinnamon. This is a rye I really enjoy.
