Nose

Dusty oak with rich grape notes from the Cognac finish; subtle fruit character without overwhelming sweetness.

Palate

Intensely decadent and overwhelming in the best way; black cherry, dark currant syrup, big vanilla, and hints of apple; chocolate liqueur cream center quality; the palate bounces across from tip to back with excellent balance.

Finish

Rich, dessert-like with lingering cherry and berry notes; spice from the rye component adds complexity.

Recommended
A masterfully blended cognac-finished collaboration that deceives with a reserved nose but delivers an intensely decadent, complex palate experience worthy of contemplative sipping.
