📝 Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

Rich caramel and butterscotch lead, followed by vanilla bean, toasted oak, and a touch of honey. Beneath the sweetness, subtle notes of leather, dried corn husk, and warming baking spices emerge.

👅 Palate

Full-bodied and smooth with prominent caramel, vanilla custard, and sweet corn balanced by charred oak and cinnamon spice. Mid-palate reveals hints of brown sugar, toasted nuts, and a peppery warmth that builds gradually.

🔥 Finish

Medium-long finish with lingering oak tannins, black pepper spice, and a pleasantly warm fade of caramel and vanilla.

🥃 How to Enjoy

Recommended
🥃
Neat

The purist's choice. Full oak, vanilla, and caramel come through at room temperature with no dilution.

🧊
On the Rocks

A single large cube slows dilution and tames heat on high-proof pours. Wheated bourbons are especially good this way.

💧
With Water

On 100+ proof bottles, a few drops settle the alcohol burn and let the grain and spice breathe.

💡 High-proof and single barrel releases shine neat. Save the rocks for everyday-sipper bourbons.
