Tasting Notes
"The aroma is inviting with a malty and fruity profile. (cherries and oranges. There's also a mild sweet milk chocolate note. It's moderately full on the palate and lightly sweet. As you move on to the finish you'll find barrel spices giving the whiskey some zing and a gentle oak flavor at the finish. The fruity profile from the nose is still with you as is the toasted malt flavor providing some heft. "
