Other reviews... At first the nose is dominated by wood—pencil shavings and Popsicle sticks—but it soon reveals violets, blueberries, grape Kool-Aid, and peppery spice. The palate is dry, with nuts, herbs and spices, mocha, and semi-sweet chocolate; a few drops of water help with integration and bring out more fruit, including lemon meringue pie. It finishes nutty and dry, with coffee beans and a touch of lemon. 88 points - whiskyadvocate.com, reviewed by: Susannah Skiver Barton 2020

...The tobacco nose is a bit of a poser: how did that get there? Or the spearmint, which helps as you try to chew things over in your mind. The big rye wave on delivery is supported by mixed dark sugars, yet something ashy about the finish. 85.5 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2022

...A delightful rye whiskey that shows delicious aromas of graham cracker, roasted barley, aged honey, and vanilla cream. The mouthfeel is lifted and bright bringing forward seductive flavors of roasted pecan, black tea, and butterscotch. 92 points - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2021
