Tasting Notes

Nose: A sophisticated and inviting aroma of rich caramel and toasted vanilla, intertwined with dried dark fruits like cherry and fig. Underlying notes of seasoned oak, a hint of leather, and a delicate wisp of baking spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, and a touch of allspice – develop as it breathes, suggesting complexity and age.

Palate: The entry is robust and full-bodied, delivering a wave of sweet butterscotch and dark brown sugar, quickly balanced by a prominent, yet elegant, oak presence. Orchard fruits, particularly baked apple and pear, emerge, alongside a gentle rye spice that provides a pleasant warmth. A creamy texture coats the mouth, punctuated by notes of roasted nuts and a subtle earthy minerality. The 100 proof is well-integrated, offering warmth without harshness.

Finish: Long, warm, and exceptionally smooth. The finish lingers with a harmonious blend of sweet vanilla, fading caramel, and persistent dry oak. A whisper of dark chocolate and a touch of peppered spice gradually give way to a clean, satisfying dryness, leaving a pleasant, memorable aftertaste of aged wood and a final kiss of dark fruit.
