Tasting Notes

Nose: A classic bourbon nose opens with sweet corn and vanilla bean, complemented by light caramel and a faint suggestion of toasted oak. Subtle hints of dried apricot and a whisper of baking spice, like nutmeg and cinnamon, emerge as it breathes.

Palate: The palate is immediately approachable, offering a pleasant balance of sweetness and warmth. Rich notes of butterscotch and crème brûlée lead, followed by a gentle rye spice that tinges the mid-palate. A robust oak presence provides structure without overpowering, alongside flavors of candied orange peel and a touch of roasted nuts.

Finish: Medium in length, the finish is clean and warming. Sweet oak and caramel linger, gracefully fading into a soft, dry spice and a hint of dark chocolate, leaving a satisfying and mellow aftertaste.
