Tasting Notes
"This bourbon has a flavor profile akin to a Mexican mole sauce—think aromas and flavors of milk chocolate, roasted nuts and seeds, sweet spices, savory herbs (thyme, rosemary, bayleaf), berries, prunes, and a touch of salt. It is quite rich and oily on the palate, with a medium finish that is spicy, herbal, and fruity with a lashing note of leather. "
