Tasting Notes
"Lots going on with the aroma beginning with toasted oak, sweet vanilla, caramel, smoke, and coconut. Dry on the palate, but not too astringent. Leather and bitter flavors join the aromatic notes. Lengthy, warm finish with a medium-full body. Despite the proof, water or ice isn't needed here, but go ahead if that is your pleasure. "
