Lot No 40 Canadian Rye Whisky (750ml)

Rye spice comes in like a lion here before shifting gears to become sourdough rye bread. The flavors in the glass are big but notes of orange peel and clove emerge over time. Eucalyptus and a touch of bitterness on the finish.This full-bodied blended whisky hits all the right notes, starting with plenty of rich caramel and oak tones on the nose and palate, plus touches of butterscotch, spicy cinnamon and clove. It finishes long, slightly oily and mouthfilling. Sip it straight or add a splash of sweet vermouth. - K.N.Aromas of rye bread and orange blossom betray the fruity character. Notes of white pepper, licorice, vanilla plus hints of musty library books and river stones come through. This one develops in the glass, revealing itself to be rather complex.
