Tasting Notes
"The aroma leans sweet and spicy with more wintery spices come into play. Maple and apple also make an appearance. Char smoke is present as well. As you move on to the taste, the spices on the whiskey intensify as the whiskey leans dry and tannic. There's a little sweetness in the middle, but the barrel has taken over here. Adding a bit of water helps bridge the flavors together. Would be a good whiskey for those that like spice and fruit, but not necessarily sweet bourbons. Finish ends with the char barrel notes. "
