Michter’s Limited Edition Barrel Strength Rye

Think of sitting on the front porch swing legs up a good song playing and this smooth barrel strength rye. It’s an easy sipper from the allspice and old-style licorice to the cadre of caramel and vanilla expressions that intertwine custard and German chocolate cake. You don’t expect sweetness but it’s here and lasting. If it has a weakness it loses its intensity about mid-palate but rebounds with a healthy medium-length finish.
