Tasting Notes
"The nose shows some complexity with cooked apples, leather, and pencil shavings in addition to the moderately strong oak and vanilla notes. As you taste you'll find a mouth full of barrel spices and a medium sweetness from the grain and vanilla. The finish shows less sweet with the tannic oak squashing those notes. It's more on the dry and spicy side at the end than the sweet and fruity which you found on the nose. A pleasant dram, particularly if you like the smoked char flavors to linger on your palate. "
