Malt Fascination (85)

Sniff:
Not overly spicy, but does get some more crispness with a little bit of time. Some orange waxiness, a hint of pith, some menthol too.

Sip:
The palate is a bit waxy too, but has some more dry spiciness. Tobacco, orange zest and pith, some cherry stones. Some pear, menthol.

Swallow:
The finish removes some of the sweetness and focuses more on the mint and spiciness. A whiff of licorice, mint, orange.

A very decent rye whiskey, although the dryness and spiciness aren’t as pronounced as with some other recent releases. It’s a rather low-rye whisky, I think. Having said that, it’s still tasty enough with lots of interesting stuff going on. And as always, the mint and orange bit is present which I like a lot anyway!
