📝 Tasting Notes

👃 Nose

Rich and complex with waves of butterscotch, dark caramel, and vanilla custard mingling with dried cherry and fig. Toasted oak, baking spices, and a hint of leather add depth and maturity to this celebratory expression.

👅 Palate

Full-bodied and luxurious, delivering intense flavors of toffee, maple syrup, and charred oak alongside dark chocolate and roasted nuts. The high proof brings warming cinnamon and black pepper spice, balanced by sweet corn and honeyed fruit notes.

🔥 Finish

Long and warming with lingering oak tannins, brown sugar sweetness, and gentle spice that slowly fades to toasted grain 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.
