Tasting Notes
"With the higher proof, the smoke as does the fruit. Like (back in the day) adjusting the screen on your television to make the image sharper, things just become a bit more clear. Salt and toffee along with wood spices that tingle the tongue show up on the midpalate. The whisky is chewy and filling with a pleasant sherried conclusion."
