Flavor profile

The K yeast adds a slight-spice direction to the higher-rye recipe.

Pairing & serving

Start with a small pour and add water gradually. Try with roasted nuts or dark chocolate.

After opening & when to enjoy

Keep upright, tightly closed, away from heat and sunlight. The spirit is ready to enjoy and does not continue barrel aging in the bottle. After opening, aim to enjoy within about a year for the freshest aroma, especially as the bottle empties.
