Tasting Notes
"On the nose, the whiskey is obviously young and raw. There's a lot of wood, grain, and alcohol, but also some cherry, peaches and cream, and even a faint metallic taste of copper. In the mouth, it's mellower than the nose would lead one to believe; it”s very fruity and floral, with additional flavors of wood, sawdust, and dried apricot. There's a bit of chocolate and mint in the very short finish. "
