Batch 242 108.2 proof. Aroma offers cashew nut, date, fig, tobacco, old furniture, leather, sage, honeydew melon, caramel apple, and a hint of smoke. Slight bit of ethanol but overall complex and delightful. Oh wow. Palate brings more nut (now macadamia and hazelnut) along with wine, dried fruits (raisin/fig), pipe tobacco, black cherry, and toffee. Definitely tastes like there’s some quite old whiskey in here. Flavors are rich, robust, and so well integrated it’s almost hard to pick out individual notes. Just know it’s delicious. Finish is medium with plum, sherry wine, dark chocolate, citrus zest, and just a touch of nutmeg. There is also wood tannins but it’s hard to just say “oak”; it’s like layers of different woods. Tobacco and leather notes linger. Zero heat. Mouthfeel is full and buttery smooth. I know I used leather, tobacco, fig, and nut several times, but chalk that up to the cohesiveness of the profile, as these elements are present throughout the experience. Phenomenal. 6 out 5. At $199, I regret nothing and would rebuy. It’s that good, and that unique. The king of finished whiskey.
