Tasting Notes
"Fairly dark and rich bronze in color, it smells like dried hay and golden wheat. Fairly full-flavored for the height of proof, with notes of vanilla and grated nutmeg. The body is very pastry-like, similar to the bottom layer of dough that doesn't quite crisp up on the bottom of an apple pie. The alcohol burn stays throughout the finish, muddling some delicate nuances which open up a bit with a few drops of water. Curious to see what a few more years of aging will do to this whiskey. "
