Tasting Notes
"The whiskey is a beautiful red-hued dark brown in the glass. Juicy plums and red berries lead on the nose, along with peanuts, vanilla, cinnamon, and a spicy oak influence. The palate is rather approachable in spite of the high proof, and offers blackberries, red wine, spearmint, and toffee. A warming finish offers rich chocolate syrup, barrel char, sawdust, and peanut brittle."
