Tasting Notes

Nose: Inviting aromas of toasted rye bread, fresh-baked pumpernickel, and warm cinnamon lead into hints of orange peel, dried apricot, and a whisper of dill. Underlying notes of rich caramel and dark chocolate provide depth, balanced by a subtle earthy spice.

Palate: A full-bodied and impeccably balanced palate opens with a burst of spicy rye, black pepper, and caraway seed, quickly mellowing into layers of sweet vanilla bean, maple syrup, and stone fruit. Notes of candied ginger, mint, and a delicate herbal nuance from the three-chamber still provide a complex and nuanced mid-palate experience.

Finish: Long and satisfying, the finish is characterized by lingering rye spice, dark cocoa, and a pleasant warmth. Hints of tobacco leaf, dried cherry, and a subtle oak char emerge, leaving a clean, complex, and memorable aftertaste with a touch of savory earthiness.
