Tasting
How it drinks
- Sight
- Deep dark amber with mahogany and russet tones; thick, viscous legs from cask strength. Richest colour in the JD core lineup
- Nose
- Surprisingly gentle for its proof — peanut brittle, roasted peanuts, subtle saltiness. Sweet banana cream pie with vanilla wafers, not artificial banana. Caramel, charred oak, and baking spice
- Palate
- Classic caramel corn sweetness gives way to Chinese five-spice, dry oak, and a soft creamy caramel ribbon uniting diverse elements. Sweet banana nut bread with a hit of proof. Enormous depth and complexity at cask strength. Proofs range 125-140 per barrel
- Finish
- Long and warming — oak and cherry dominate as banana notes fade. The proof dries out the finish with persistent spice, charred wood, and deep caramel. One of the most complex JD expressions
Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
