Incredibly smooth either which way. The bittersweet rye spiciness possessed a delicate, subtle characteristic until the spices began to 'pop' near the finish. It's obvious that the 16-year old component carries, for the most part, the day over the younger 6-year old component. A lot going on here, but you need to pay attention and take the time to fully appreciate the underlying complexity. Lovely whiskey, all told. I'm very glad I didn't wait!
