Willett Family Estate 4 Year Old ‘Cask Strength’ Straight Rye Whiskey 750ml 55.4%

Official tasting notes:
Nose: Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high proof youthful.
Palate: A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It’s a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel.
Balance: It’s insanely well balanced with the alcohol so perfectly integrated at 115 proof you’ll forget it’s there, but you’ll find yourself smiling more and happier with each dram.
Finish: The finish is long and the spices dominate this batch, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface.
