- Nose
- Rich oak and vanilla lead, followed by dried fruit, honey, and subtle sherry influence. Notes of toffee and baking spices create complexity.
- Palate
- Full-bodied with integrated spice and sweetness. Caramel and dark fruit from sherry cask aging, balanced with oak tannins and rye spice from bourbon maturation.
- Finish
- Long, warming finish with persistent oak, spice, and a touch of dark fruit sweetness.
