On the nose, I get vanilla, fruit, floral, clove, mint and after sitting awhile some toffee. The tast I get vanilla, wood, pepper, with toffee in the back. The finish I get cloves, wood, mint and pepper. With water, the nose is more floral, with a woody and peppery taste, I will probably prefer this
neat, overall it's more interesting and has more depth.
Really good overall. Hard to compare this to other ryes though. This comes in around $75 a bottle, and in the same ball park Willett Family Estate 4 Year has more licorice and tea on the taste and is more interesting overall, while Crown Royal 16 Year has similar notes, but is more smooth overall. It's worth trying, not sure if it's worth buying. Rated 3.5 / 5.0
