Tasting Notes
Color Dark Mahogany
Nose After resting a bit, it shows off a nutty, fruity character full of peanut shells, sawdust, apple, and antique furniture. Big cherry note underlying that fruitiness. It’s sweet and sticky on the nose
Palate Peanut brittle, deep charred oak, and cherry. Granola, baking spices, warm fudge, and even more cherry. Sweet with waves of wood crashing into the midpalate. This is a dark and brooding whiskey that demands attention. The mouthfeel clings to the tongue
Finish Long finish full of old oak, wood spice, anise, and leather. The oak is so heavy at times that it borders on bitter. A few drops of water smooth out the heavy oak on the finish and makes for an all-around more enjoyable experience
