Tasting Notes

Nose: Initial notes of rich caramel and toasted oak, intertwined with bright citrus zest and a subtle hint of dried fruit, likely apricot or orange peel. A delicate undercurrent of baking spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of clove – provides complexity and warmth.

Palate: A viscous and coating mouthfeel introduces a harmonious blend of sweet vanilla and buttery toffee, quickly followed by a gentle peppery spice that awakens the palate. Dark chocolate and roasted coffee beans emerge mid-palate, balanced by a faint fruity sweetness mirroring the nose. The signature Woodford rye spice asserts itself, adding a sophisticated dryness.

Finish: Medium to long, with a lingering warmth. The spice gently fades, leaving behind notes of sweet oak, a whisper of dark fruit, and a pleasant leathery earthiness. A subtle sweetness of brown sugar persists, inviting another sip.
