FAE-01 focuses on the specific flavors of dried fruit and oak by searing an American oak stave on one side while leaving the other side raw. The whiskey is bottled between 110.3-110.6 proof.

Tasting Notes

"A big fruit basket of oranges (the whole orange), ruby red grapefruit, red pear and red delicious apples elbow up to the front of the nose and palate. Further sniffs and sips introduce more herbaceous notes backed up by rich caramel, baking spices, toffee, milk chocolate and walnuts. It's a pleasantly weighty and rich bourbon, which feels like a dessert whiskey if sipped neat, but does double duty with more of a refreshing juiciness if a rock or two is added. "
