What critics and judges wrote

Falstaff · September 2022
Delicate bouquet of banana chips, vanilla milk and nuts. Spicy, light rye notes come through on the palate. There are notes of cayenne pepper on the finish.

A very harmonious balance of fruit and peppery wood on the nose. The spicy imprint is fully expressed on the palate, the ripe oak notes carry the flavour. Long, compact finish.
93 ptsNovember 2020falstaff.com ↗
High typicity with butter cookie, stone fruit and clear vanilla on the nose. The rye component brings a lot of savouriness to the palate, before a hint of coconut and nougat can be felt on the finish.

High typicity with butter biscuit, stone fruit and clear vanilla on the nose. The rye component brings a lot of spice to the palate, before a hint of coconut and nougat can be felt on the finish.
Distiller · Tim Knittel
The nose is sweet and smoky with caramel, light vanilla and a hint of corn. … Smooth with heat and a slight burn. Finish is long with strong lingering caramel, oak and warmth.

IWSC judges · Gold Outstanding · 2016
Seriously dusty, warehouse. A workman drinking coffee after newly pouring black top in Manhattan. In the mouth, cherry drops and coffee on the Highline overlooking the Hudson, as winter rolls in. Sweet sugars and rum notes on the finish.

Elegant and floral with a malty nose and a soft caramel palate.
Bronze2021iwsc.net ↗
Toffee and candied corn with rye spice. Complex and oily with a full-bodied finish.
Silver2020iwsc.net ↗
Toasted coconut and vanilla pod character with sweet citrus fruit and apple on the palate. Rich and flavoursome with a bright finish.
Bronze2019iwsc.net ↗
Fragrant, spicy, perfumed, menthol and bold in the nose. Coconut and sweet vanilla on the palate. Oak spices and corn on the cob.
Silver Outstanding2018iwsc.net ↗
Sweet cinnamon apple pie, the nose is dominated by fresh sweetcorn accompanied by hints of rye. Smooth and bold palate, pretty full-bodied. Ending in an exceptionally long finish. Real class act.
Silver Outstanding2017iwsc.net ↗
The oak is the star here, with toasted notes of charcoal, burnt toast and some rye spices coming through on the nose. … The finish gives sweet oak and dryness with vanilla.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
