Tasting Notes

Nose: Initial notes burst with rich salted caramel and vanilla bean, swiftly followed by a delightful medley of dried dark fruits like fig and cherry. A subtle undercurrent of toasted oak, baking spice (cinnamon, nutmeg), and a hint of leather adds complexity, promising a robust palate.

Palate: The entry is powerful yet remarkably smooth, showcasing the barrel strength without overwhelming heat. Sweet caramel and butterscotch lead, intertwined with a generous wave of dark chocolate and espresso. Mid-palate reveals layers of seasoned oak, roasted nuts, and a bright zest of orange peel, balanced by a gentle peppery spice that tingles the tongue.

Finish: Long and enduring, the finish resonates with lingering notes of dark fruit, charred oak, and a warm, sweet tobacco. The spice fades gracefully, leaving behind a satisfying warmth and a subtle reminder of cocoa and a whisper of smoke. Exceptionally smooth for its proof.
