Tasting Notes
"Though the nose gives away the youthfulness of the whiskey, the aromas are pleasant with peanuts and barrel spices. There is a touch of raw rope and hay as well. The palate changes everything, however. Beginning a touch sweet on the entry, the flavor of chocolate cherry smoke is what lingers. Glad to see it was used judiciously. The finish is a bit on the hot side proof-wise, but I don't hate it. Interested to see what happens with another couple of years of aging."
