Corsair Dark Rye American Rye Malt, 42.5%

Price: $40 Issue: Spring 2022 Reviewer: Julia Higgins


A spicy nose that's plentiful with fruit too: There are notes of orange peel, lime, cherry Starburst, watermelon Jolly Ranchers, and apricot marmalade. From here, the silky-smooth palate drops off in fruitiness, with a light sweetness taking over and summoning notes of crème brûlée, yellow birthday cake, burnt walnuts, and a touch of earthiness. Dark chocolate, espresso, toasted almonds, and bright red fruit reign on the finish.
