Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry on the nose. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak. A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel. The finish is long and the spices dominate, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface.
