Tasting Notes

Nose

Toffee and astringent sawdust are readily apparent. Buttered toast, cloves and orange spice weave their way through the smell.

Palate

The whiskey opens very nicely with dark chocolate and bitter orange, evolving to butterscotch with a touch of tobacco and cinnamon. It flattens into bitter oak toward the end, but the finish enriches the oak with caramel and a faint suggestion of mint as it fades.
