Tasting Notes

Nose

Wonderfully complex. I want a candle made from this smell. Sweet cinnamon bear candies, holiday spices, and clove. The sweetness gives way to deep notes of aged oak, hints of citrus like Meyers lemon, and orange peel. There is some light grass or maybe green apple underpinning the profile.

Palate

A buttery mouthfeel that tingles the lips and tongue, and the alcohol is wonderfully matured. Its clean across the mouth without being oily or watery. There are flavors of Bing cherries, leather books, vanilla, all rolled together in molasses sugar. Baking spice returns with wood char, black tea, and currant. The finish is a delight; the whiskey is smooth and even as it goes down, warming the chest without burning. Exhaling revitalizes the flavors that remain on the tongue and entices you with more subtle expressions of the flavors you experienced.
