Amber color. Aromas and flavors of toasted almond croissant, moroccan spice cake a la mode, and floral herbal candle with a satiny, vibrant, fruity medium-to-full body and a warming, intricate, long finish with notes of coconut-papaya custard, vanilla spiced nuts, sweet dill pickle, and pumice and cherry tobacco. A toothsome Rye that delivers deliciousness and delight with every sip.
