Words of Whisky (86)

Whiskynotes:

Nose: quite round and integrated. Brown sugar, mint and sweet cocoa. Coffee beans. Bananas flambéed and plenty of caramelized sugar. The rye brings some dusty spices to the table, mainly cinnamon. There’s also an oaky touch but overall this is not the roughest of all ryes, it keeps the middle between a regular rye and a bourbon.

Mouth: drier and spicier now. Sweet coffee again, and plenty of baking spices. Cinnamon, clove, nutmeg. A little vanilla and honey, but on a lower level. Sweet liquorice. Hints of dried coconut. Overall quite oaky. A slightly fragrant / waxy touch as well.

Finish: long, spicy, with pepper and vanilla.

A good rye, with a balanced nose and then much more spicy oomph and oak on the palate.
