This was a blind sample that was sent to me. I reviewed it live on the Whiskey Network Discord server, then got the reveal in order to fill in relevant details here.
Floral, bread-y, yeasty and peppery. Stone fruits, meaty, earthy. Overall, its pretty a pretty spicy, yeast-y nose. No peat or smoke.
Medium mouth feel, some heat. Bread-y, lots of pepper here. Jammy and sweet with a nice caramel presence. Tobacco, sulfur.
Long, and rich. Lots of pepper. Super juicy, almost in the same vein as an Oregon Pinot Noir. Meaty, lots of body. Rich cocoa, earthy pepper.
There's so much going on here and all of it
