High West The Noble Share Marques de Casa Noble Añejo Tequila and Amburana Barrel Finished Blend of Straights (Batch No. 24K15), 52%

A blend of ryes finished in extra añejo casks from tequila maker Marques de Casa Noble. Honey, brown sugar, cinnamon, candied strawberries, mint, and eucalyptus on the nose. The palate is hot, but water brings out heavy notes of dark chocolate and lightly smoked grains. A sweet, smooth finish offers tobacco leaf, creamy vanilla, and generous pepper spice. Full bodied and well made, even if a bit hot. (Release date: 12/24)
