Devils River Texas Rye

Orange rind pineapple and tropical aromas on the nose. The palate has notes of chocolate milkshake with nuttiness and a hint of espresso. Water brings out more tropical flavors bitter chocolate and a light char note. A bit hot but the finish is balanced and reasonably long—chocolaty lemony with more of the charred note and some tobacco leaf. Not quite as full-bodied as it might be but a solid rye expression nonetheless.
