It begins quiet, like a good story whispered across a campfire. The nose carries fresh bread, cinnamon, and the sweet comfort of powdered toast—familiar but fleeting. Vanilla drifts in, soft as memory, with oak just barely there, like a ship’s mast on the horizon.

The palate speaks in gentle truths—light rye grain, a flicker of spice, spiced vanilla and smoked oak. A touch of raisin brings warmth, like dried sun on a winter’s walk. It doesn’t shout. It leans in and waits for you to listen.

The finish lingers—vanilla and rye spice simmering slow, with cinnamon and leather chasing their echo into the dark.

Only 91 barrels. A limited run. And like all things rare and fleeting, it asks for your full attention. A few more proof points and it might’ve been legendary. Still, what’s here is honest. Balanced. A rye for those who know the weight of subtlety—and the beauty in restraint.
