Tasting Notes
"The name seems to imply this is a finished bourbon, but it actually references that it's a blend of two barrels. Find rye spice on the nose with touches of licorice and spearmint, along with vanilla taffy, marzipan, and peanut brittle. The palate is rich and chewy, with barrel char, baking spices, oak, Baker's chocolate, and a touch of maple syrup. A lengthy finish showcases vanilla, crème brûlée, spicy oak, and peanut shells. Batch #2/6."
