Nose
Medicinal honey and smoky baking spice with a cereal grain note. High-proof alcohol burn tempered by syrupy, honey-forward character.
Palate
Bold announcement of heat followed by tremendous caramel richness and depth. Rich, oily texture with pronounced oak influence.
Finish
Long, warming, and intensely caramel-driven finish with lingering spice.
Overall Score
4.3 / 5
A record-strength Idaho bourbon with impressive caramel depth and grain character that belies its ten-year maturation and exceptional proof.
