Tasting Notes

Nose: The nose opens sweet and complex, with earthy baking spices complimented by deep caramel, cinnamon, and thick dried black fruit and candied orange peel with savoury smoky charred oak at the back.

Palate:  The palate opens with deep yet sweet maple syrup, vanilla, and dark chocolate followed by a wave of dark pepper spice that runs down the sides of the mouth and is accented with touch of citrus peel, earthy nut-heavy baking spices, tannic oak, and a char-driven mineral note of bitter smoky oak.

Finish: The finish opens with lingering spice from the palate alongside deep caramel, dark chocolate, dried red fruit, and roasted pecan nuts. This is followed by a faintly herbaceous and tannic aftertaste as well as a warm Kentucky hug.
