Uh...yeah
This review is based on a four-ounce pour in a Glen Caron glass with two frozen medicinal stainless steel balls, medical grade. Poured this, let it sit 15 minutes, went to it multiple times to experience the scent in the glass. It is unlike any rye I have ever smelled. I can't even. Cherry leather. Can't compare to anything. Medicinal cherry flavored shoelace. Digging in deep on the nose. Deep inhale. Maybe brown sugar, but it's not pleasant. It smells like glue. It smells like I'm sniffing glue. Paint thinner, I must drink a lot of water with this one. Oh dear god, this is clearly an experiment. Drinking water now. Heavy Marzipan this was rye where they were like, oh, we gotta get rid of this. Let's quickly make a mash bill. hiccuping... I have never smelled anything like this before. I can't even say that I smell oak. Heavy deep sniffs, I smell oak.It that's it Oak Rye, light cherry, marzipan, and we're done. I don't want to drink the rest of this, but it's Halloween. It's not sweet. It's oaky medicinal, too high of a proof even at 47% Adding water now..... 25 oz... Cola... I can't I can't like this. I don't like it I'm gonna I'm gonna finish this because I poured it But I don't like it and I'm leaving this bottle probably forever at three quarters full. This is so unique of an expression that I can't wrap my head around it. It doesn't taste like rye. It tastes like a spiced bourbon. And they messed up on it and were trying to make some money off of it Probably because the barrels were somewhere in the rickhouse where they were like we forgot about these ones, well make a special release.
