Millstone 100 Rye 50%
Tasting Note
Re-Tasted: Feb 2016
The nose is sweet and so juicy with treacle and beautifully soft rye spice. With time it becomes earthier and the fruit really emerges – plum, raspberry and date. Beneath the herbal rye lurks!
The palate is intense and showing a lot more herbal rye character. A little astringent but the treacle takes the edge off. Finally some dried, sherry-like fruit comes through, but wow! That’s herbal. The finish is…. herbal rye heaven! Drying, intense and slightly spicy. What a length!
