Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Deep mahogany with rich, dark amber highlights.
Nose
Intense and complex with dark chocolate, cherry cola, and molasses. Toasted oak and tobacco leaf emerge with notes of leather, cinnamon, and clove.
Palate
Bold and full-bodied with concentrated flavors of chocolate-covered cherries, caramel, and spiced oak. Rich vanilla and leather notes develop with a warming, peppery spice and slight bitterness.
Finish
Lengthy, warming finish with lingering dark chocolate, oak spice, and tobacco that slowly fade to dry oak and subtle cherry.

Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
