Tasting Notes:
Rich brown sugar, molasses and caramel lead the nose alongside sweet tobacco, polished oak and warming baking spices. Layers of vanilla and ripe fruit develop underneath, giving the whiskey a deep, rounded sweetness. The palate is full and concentrated, combining caramel, strawberries and grain sweetness with seasoned oak and a gently bitter woody edge. Honey and fresh mint emerge through the finish, leaving lingering sweetness, spice and mature oak in a structured, warming conclusion.
