Tasting Notes
Nose: A rich and inviting bouquet opens with classic bourbon notes of sweet vanilla bean and caramel, swiftly followed by dried dark fruits like fig and apricot. Underlying whispers of toasted oak, baking spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of clove – mingle with a subtle floral lift and a distant wisp of pipe tobacco.
Palate: The palate delivers a delightful balance of sweetness and spice. A creamy entry of butterscotch and rich toffee quickly gives way to a vibrant surge of candied orange peel and cherry. The 9-year aging asserts itself with a pleasant warmth, revealing notes of charred oak and leather, underpinned by a developing spiciness of black pepper and ginger. The unfiltered nature likely contributes to a fuller mouthfeel, adding depth and texture.
Finish: A long, lingering finish that is both warm and satisfying. Sweet oak and burnt sugar fade gracefully into a persistent echo of cinnamon, dark chocolate, and a faint nutty quality. A pleasant dryness and a touch of tannic grip remind you of its age, leaving a clean yet memorable impression on the back palate.
