Very Good,
Strong Recommendation

Tasting Note:

Aromas of charred turbinado sugar, blueberry pie, and coffee with cream make up the decadent nose of this whiskey. The palate expresses brilliantly balanced rye herbaceous qualities, while carrying forth comforting flavors of creme brulee and oak with a hint of spice on the finish.
