Palate

At a relatively modest 102 proof, I was a bit surprised at how hot this comes in on the palate at first but the heat subsides and then its all toffee and malty chocolate mingling with raisin and roasted nuts with a veritable pillow of smoke nestling onto your tongue as you exhale.

The finish is medium long and gently smoky with lingering tobacco and nuttiness.
