There’s a clear thread of spice here, moving from cooked pear on the nose to white pepper and allspice later on, while honeysuckle syrup and toasted marshmallow bring a sweeter counterpoint. That contrast gives the notes some shape, and the long, warm finish sounds like the strongest feature. The 2-year-old age is worth keeping in view alongside the listed SGD 111.65 sale reference; the price alone doesn’t settle whether it’s a fit, but the character has enough detail to make this an interesting rye to consider.
