Tasting Notes

About:

75 proof (37.5% ABV), 750 ml bottle MSRP $33.
Appearance:
Pale auburn-gold.
Nose:
The nose offers bright notes of cherry, warm spices, and a hint of brown sugar.
Palate:
On the palate is a slight cinnamon sweetness with notes of clove, baked fruit, and vanilla bean. Final Thoughts: This Manhattan cocktail has a delicate texture with a relatively short finish. The flavors are evenly balanced in that none of them really stand out. I would have preferred a more robust rye flavor on the palate along with a stronger depth of character from the flavor profile.
Finish:
