Tasting Notes
"The whiskey gives off aromas of buttery caramel, red apple, candied cherries, vanilla, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. The rich, weighty, yet balanced palate is a mix of more of that toffee-like quality in the nose along with tart fruit. A hint of blood orange carries into the lingering finish. "
