The Decade 2 expression is the second release in the Decade Series. This 10-year-old rye whiskey is bottled at 100
proof and features a mash bill consisting of 95% rye and 5% barley. This expression offers bold and spicy flavors that
are complemented by subtle notes of vanilla and caramel from the oak barrel. A great example of a well-aged rye
whiskey, and its 100-proof bottling provides a satisfying warmth and depth of flavor.

Nose: The nose opens up with strong aromas of rye bread and baking spices, such as cinnamon and nutmeg. There are
hints of dried fruits, particularly raisins and dates, as well as a subtle sweetness of vanilla and caramel.
Palate: The whiskey is bold and assertive, with a spicy kick of black pepper and cloves followed by notes of dark
chocolate, coffee, and toasted oak. The mouthfeel is rich and full-bodied, with a slight oiliness and a pleasant warmth
from the high alcohol content.
Finish: The finish is long and lingering, with a dry and slightly bitter aftertaste that echoes the spicy notes from the palate. Hints of charred wood and tobacco, which add complexity and depth to the overall flavor profile.
