- Honey gold
- Nose
- Sweet and grounded with candy corn, warm caramel, vanilla frosting and lemon zest. Toasted oak, light clove, rye spice and black cherry
- Palate
- Sophisticated layers of vanilla and caramel with subtle cherry, softened by cinnamon, clove, cardamom and nutmeg. Kentucky chew reveals peppery heat and barrel char
- Finish
- Long and elegantly dissipating with warm cinnamon, gentle peppercorn spice, light charred oak and a hint of cardamom
Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
