A delicate floral sweetness and a subtle nutty undertone (hazelnut, almond) emerge, indicative of the Madeira finish. There's a faint, waxy confectionary quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The palate is rich and velvety, delivering an immediate wave of stewed stone fruits – plum, cherry, and more of that delightful fig. This is swiftly followed by a creamy vanilla and butterscotch sweetness, balanced by a gentle warmth of baking spices (cinnamon, nutmeg). The Madeira influence adds a unique oxidative character, like candied orange peel and a touch of savory umami, lending complexity without overpowering the bourbon's core. A subtle tannic grip from the oak provides structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, lingering, and exceptionally elegant.

The finish leaves a delightful, slightly gripping dryness on the palate, inviting another sip.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reserve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48215610458330,"sku":"BOURBON-1783608466238","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/8263\/7018\/files\/main_f9a8ae81-f3c9-42fd-9fa3-ca358042cfb5.png?v=1783962359","url":"https:\/\/takeyourpickliquors.com\/products\/2018-nelsons-green-brier-distillery-belle-meade-madeira-bourbon-90-4-proof","provider":"Take Your Pick Liquors","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
