95 Points - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2022

"Elegant with a beautiful complexity on the nose as oak extracts combine with coffee beans, citrus and cereal. A lovely richness on the palate is enhanced with a warming spice into a sweet butterscotch finale."

93 Points, Great Value, Tried & True - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2022

"Pretty, bright aromatics of crushed, dried flowers, mandarin orange peel, and a spice blend of green peppercorns, mace, and allspice. A silky mouthfeel, and bright notes of white pepper and dried tangerine carry a long, satisfying finish. Perfect on its own without water or ice."

“Priced a notch below comparable peers, this rye delivers powerful flavors that feel excitingly untamed, and will impress bourbon and rye lovers alike."

94 Points, Best Buy - Wine Enthusiast

"The complex aromas suggest red fruit, vanilla and allspice. The first sips open with oak, leading to hints of dried cherry and cranberry midpalate. That fruit note extends into the elongated, mouthwatering finish, backed by cinnamon and cayenne heat."
