Tasting Notes
"The aroma shows off the toasted oak right up front along with toasted peanuts, pecans and brûléed sugar. It has an average weight on the body with some grippy tannins, but it's not too rough and tight. A hearty malt flavor seems to be more prominent of the grain-forward mid-palate. Flavor finishes on the bittersweet side. Could stand to have a bit longer finish, but it's pleasant. "
