Rich & Rare Reserve comes from a full-bodied blend of hand-selected reserve barrel whiskies from Sazerac's stock in Canada of more than 200,000 barrels of Canadian Whisky. The nose starts off with a velvety depth. The initial sip shows the complex intermingling of mocha and caramel followed by a wonderful merger of wood and rye grain blending with tangy dark fruits. The finish is lively with a zing of rye.
