Tasting Profile

- Palate: Oily and forceful: pepper, toffee, herbal rye and oak, with plenty of heat.
- Finish: Long and spicy, dry rye and baking spice holding on.
Serving & Food
Start with a small pour in a Glencairn and a splash of water, or use a large cube to take the edge off. At this strength it also makes a very bold Sazerac.
