Tasting Notes:
- Nose: The aroma is a symphony of rich caramel, creamy vanilla, and dark cherries, interwoven with notes of fresh oak, leather, and a subtle smokiness. As it opens up, hints of baking spices and toasted nuts emerge, adding complexity.
- Palate: The entry is bold and full-bodied, with an immediate burst of sweet caramel, rich toffee, and velvety dark chocolate. The wheat in the mash bill provides a smooth, creamy texture, enhancing the experience. Mid-palate reveals layers of dried fruits like figs and raisins, complemented by toasted almonds, cinnamon, and a hint of black pepper.
- Finish: The finish is long, warm, and satisfying. It leaves a lasting impression with lingering notes of sweet vanilla, charred oak, and a gentle, pleasing spiciness that tingles the palate and invites another sip.
