Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Mid gold with reddish tinge from red wine cask influence; medium legs
Nose
Bitter orange, banana split, malt, beautiful chocolate, IPA beer, hops, hazelnuts, walnuts, cinnamon. Complex interplay of wine cask fruitiness and bourbon sweetness
Palate
Vibrant fruit and spice — papaya, tropical notes meet sherry cask influence. Rooibos tea, hazelnuts, walnuts, and cinnamon. The red wine and bourbon cask combination creates a layered sweet-fruit-spice profile
Finish
Medium-long finish with chocolate, nuts, cinnamon, and rooibos tea character. Wine cask tannins add structure. Warm and spice-driven fade
