Tasting
How it drinks
- Sight
- Dark rich amber
- Nose
- Baking spice-forward with light brown sugars and vanilla cream. Red fruit (cherry, strawberry candy), honey, nutmeg, cinnamon and white pepper
- Palate
- Light corn oil presence giving nice mouthfeel, layered with rye spice, baking spices, sharp oak, vanilla and toasted oak. Sweet honey and vanilla followed by darker cherry, light chocolate and youthful char
- Finish
- Rye spice jumps out front joined by vanilla and oak. Sweetness fades quickly leaving spicy dry oak that gently trails off — simple, direct, honest
Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
