How it drinks

Sight
Golden amber with bright, clear appearance
Nose
Inviting nose of vanilla, caramel, and oak with hints of corn sweetness. Light spice and wood undertones provide complexity without overwhelming.
Palate
Smooth and approachable entry with vanilla and caramel flavors. Sweet corn notes are balanced by subtle oak and a touch of black pepper. The palate is well-rounded with good body for the proof.
Finish
Medium finish with lingering caramel sweetness and gentle oak spice. A warming effect that leaves pleasant vanilla notes on the palate.

Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
