Tasting Notes
"Fig jam, cocoa, banana, and spices fill the nose. There is an interesting dichotomy on the palate with light and fruity flavors, but a viscous and creamy, somewhat nutty mouthfeel. A hint of saltiness edges into the finish, which is tangy with a spark of spicy heat. This would make an ideal dessert whiskey for an occasion where a bit of sweetness and fruit is desired, but nothing too rich and heavy. "
