Nose: Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork
which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high-proof youthful.

Palate: A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel.

Balance: It's insanely well balanced with the alcohol, so perfectly integrated at 115 proof, you'll forget it's there, but you'll find yourself smiling more and happier with each dram.

Finish: The finish is long, and the spices dominate this batch, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface.
