Tasting Notes

Nose: A sophisticated and inviting bouquet opens with classic bourbon notes of sweet caramel and vanilla bean, swiftly followed by dried dark cherry and a subtle hint of citrus peel. Underlying these are delicate floral notes, toasted oak, and a faint whisper of worn leather, painting a picture of refined elegance.

Palate: The palate arrives with a smooth, medium-bodied richness that immediately delivers on the nose's promise of caramel and vanilla. A prominent thread of sweet corn and baking spices – namely cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg – emerges, gracefully balanced by dried fruit (apricot, fig). The oak presence is well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming, alongside a pleasant, gentle warmth.

Finish: A clean, medium-long finish that maintains its elegant composure. Sweet oak and lingering vanilla fade slowly, leaving behind subtle echoes of black tea, a faint spice, and a satisfying warmth. The finish is remarkably smooth, inviting another sip without hesitation.
