Tasting Notes

Nose

The honeyed finish translates into an initial note of highly pollinated air. As I go deeper into the scent, the honey combines with the woody finish to create a smell of sweetened black tea. The nose, as a whole, is flavored by the thickness of alcohol, reflecting the high proof of the whiskey.

Palate

For a whiskey over 110 proof, theres only a moderate burn that doesnt compete with the silky mouth feel. The honey is a forward note, but I find it blending into the stronger woody, nutty feel that defines the body of the whiskey. The honey sweetness and nutty feel give an overall impression of a peanut butter cookie. It ends with a finish thats reminiscent of a coffee thats been sweetened with a bit too much honey.
