πŸ“ Tasting Notes

πŸ‘ƒ Nose

Refined and mature with deep caramel, vanilla bean, and honeyed wheat notes complemented by dried cherry and fig. Well-integrated oak provides structure while maintaining the signature wheated softness with hints of butterscotch and baking spice.

πŸ‘… Palate

Silky and medium-bodied, offering layers of butterscotch, vanilla custard, and toffee with ripe stone fruit and maraschino cherry. The 12-year maturation brings elegant oak tannins and warm spicesβ€”cinnamon and nutmegβ€”balanced by wheat sweetness and caramelized sugar.

πŸ”₯ Finish

Long, gentle finish with oak, vanilla, and honey notes that gradually fade into dried fruit and subtle baking spices.

πŸ₯ƒ How to Enjoy

Recommended
πŸ₯ƒ
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.

πŸ’§
With Water

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

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