- Description
- Wilderness Trail's heavily-charred American oak has given this four-year-old rye a bracing intensity of black pepper and liquorice, with substantial wood influence cutting through the grain spice. At 51% ABV, the texture is full and mouth-coating, with vanilla, butter, and dry oak developing into a long finish. Best enjoyed neat or with minimal water to appreciate its proof-driven character.
