Overall Character: Potpourri: Floral, fruity, and sweet.

| Nose: Pear, mashed fruit, chlorine, and roses. Overall, like an artificially scented air freshner.

| Palate: I can barely taste the rye. It’s very floral and fruity, with some chocolate. Again, it’s like potpourri or something, mixed with a high rye bourbon and a straight rye.

| Finish: Finally some classic rye spices come through, like cinnamon and clove, along with anise. It’s borderline floral again.

| Overall: A very unique and interesting rye. Not quite to my liking, but definitely different. High price for a Dickel, too.
