The nose is complex with notes of cinnamon and cloves in the spice profile. There is a sweet hint of maple and vanilla followed by just the lightest notes of a salty brine.
The whiskey has a spicy bite that allows the brine to surface. There is a sweet undercurrent of vanilla and burnt spice throughout the drink that transitions to brine and wood smoke in the finish. The whiskey settles in the chest with the distinct glow of a long, slow burn. Its scent rises in the throat as notes of cinnamon and maple that makes for a very pleasant experience. Extremely late in the finish, after even the glow has dissipated, it leaves the mouth with a distinct peppery flavor.
