Gyozafox 4.0

Smells and tastes of highly buttered cinnamon toast! Very smooth approach without an overly bombastic spice spike. Comes off young but well mannered to me; don't mind the finish lingering around as long as it does.

schu fly 3.8

Nose: damp peat moss intermingled with butterscotch. Palate: Sweet earthy tones hinting at a scotch whiskey that fades to sweet pepper. Finish: smooth creamy warmth that is slow to fade.

EddieG 4.0

A little bit of brown sugar sweetness up front, but then the spices kick in. Clove and lots of cinnamon. Vivid rye flavor and mild spice on the finish.

Gentry Wright 4.3

Full body. Delicious rye. Not to agressive. Velvet. Will always want this in my cabinet.

Agree with the tasting notes but got a little more berry spice from the rye.
