Tasting Notes
Nose: Waves of deep caramel sweetness, vanilla cream and especially juicy red fruit. This is an extremely fruit-forward bourbon nose, with cherry juice and brighter raspberry tart, hints of fudge, old oak and char.
Palate: On the palate, the first thing one notices here is textural. This is wonderfully silky and voluptuous in terms of mouthfeel, with the wheat in the grist having really modified the feel of this in the mouth.
Finish: Hints of maple and spice round things out.
