Nose
Sweet nose with evident rum influence; dried mango or papaya, vanilla bean, sea salt, and tropical fruit notes
Palate
Sweet upfront with butterscotch settling on the mid-palate; tropical fruit sweetness and molasses character; minimal spice despite high rye content
Finish
Medium to long finish with sweetness lingering on the sides of the tongue and jowls; butterscotch drips back with additional sweetness; makes you want to reach for another sip immediately
Noteworthy
A smooth, sweet rum-finished bourbon with tropical fruit and butterscotch notes that appeals to those who prefer sweeter whiskeys over spicy or oaky profiles.
