Very Olde St. Nick 8 Year Ancient Cask Rye Whiskey
| Description: | The nose has a bitter tart apple hits first on the nose, followed by an interesting salty wood note that mellows into a nuttier oak note over a few moments. There is a fair amount of bitter ethanol coming off of this pour, even considering the proof. Very astringent. A dry leathery note touches down on the palate first, followed by a fair amount of oak and a big hit of heat. The alcohol is no milder on the palate than on the nose and brings a fairly bitter profile with it. The finish is medium in length and starts with some fruit notes-the tart apple returns-but quickly dissipates and a slightly bitter oak is left in its place. A little caramel lingers in the corners of the mouth, but it is ultimately outlasted by the oak note and an astringent note, making for a long but dry finish. |
