Member Ratings and Notes
Sku
 

Nose: Rye spice, industrial chemicals
Palate: Sweet and spicy with a touch of that chemical note
Finish: Heavy rye on the nose with sweet notes on the palate

 

It improves gradually from nose to palate but the chemical notes are too intense.

Andy
 

Average and smooth

 

B-/C+

Kevin
 

N: Not much of anything. I remember really testing my inhalation skills and just barely getting cloves. 

P: Light chocolate with a touch of cumin, but just seemed very watered down and flat. 

F: Nothing at all. Just dropped off. There was not even any heat to it. 

 

Kind of tasted like I added ice and waited for it to melt before drinking. 

 

Chris
 

N: Faint rye with hints of 2x4's.

P: Again very light, slightly spicey, but not much else.

F: Fades quick, slight musty note.
