The end was pleasant. Pecan came through. I was not expecting a rye; I did not detect much spice.
The aroma was smoky. I enjoyed the flavor. It has a slight peatiness and a smooth finish overall. Rated 3.5/5.
As a recent admirer of rye, this delivers spice and boldness in all the correct ways.
A perfect harmony of spice and sweetness.
Excessive bite.
