Description
Aroma: The nose opens with layered caramel and vanilla extract, followed by toasted oak and orchard fruits. Deeper investigation reveals dark dried fruits, worked leather, and an earthy undercurrent grounded by warm baking spices.
Taste: Entry is assertive — an immediate punch of cinnamon and black pepper announces the barrel-proof strength. The mid-palate softens into sweet vanilla, persistent dark fruits, and bready grain, while rich oak and subtle leather notes add structure. At full proof, the interplay between rye spice and corn sweetness stays taut without tipping in either direction.
Finish: Long and warming, with rye spice lingering alongside toasted oak and a faint whisper of vanilla. The barrel-proof heat provides a steady, glowing warmth that radiates without harshness, a testament to the eight years of maturation.
