Tasting Notes
Nose: A gentle and inviting nose, offering notes of sweet caramel and vanilla bean, underpinned by soft corn and a hint of fresh-cut oak. There's a subtle fruitiness, leaning towards ripe apple and a whisper of baking spice, like nutmeg, that adds complexity without being overpowering.
Palate: The palate is approachable and mellow, true to its proof. Initial sweetness of brown sugar and honey quickly transitions to a creamy vanilla custard character. Light oak spice develops mid-palate, complemented by a delicate touch of orchard fruit and a faint nuttiness. The mouthfeel is smooth and relatively light, making it quite quaffable.
Finish: A clean, medium-short finish that leaves a pleasant warmth. Sweet notes of vanilla and caramel linger gently, along with a mild oak spice that fades gracefully. There's no harshness, just a soft, pleasing exit.
