COLOR: russet, a rich warm hue that highlights the careful aging process and the double-oak influence
NOSE: sweet aromas of candied fruit and juicy notes of cherry blending with creamy and comforting scents of vanilla and an earthy old wood imparted by the oak
PALATE: rich, decadent flavors of chocolate give this bourbon a full mouthfeel balanced by the soft and mellow notes of wheated grains. Echoing the nose, the vanilla delivers some sweetness on the palate with additional flavors of dried fruit and a hint of honey that lingers on the tongue leaving a warm and medium finish
FINISH: The finish is balanced, allowing the intricate flavors to slowly fade, leaving a lasting impression of vanilla, old wood and a hint of honeyed sweetness.
