78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted barley
Nose
Brown sugar, molasses, nice oak, darker fruits, fig with subtle oaky character.
Palate
Warm, buttery, rich with stewed plums, dates, black cherries, leather, and tobacco. Mid-palate is broad and deeply satisfying. On revisit after Old Forester, reveals additional nutty toffee complexity.
Finish
Cinnamon tail reminiscent of red hard candies, warming spice notes.
Top notch
A richly textured barrel proof with dark fruit, leather, and tobacco character that rewards revisiting and reveals additional toffee complexity.
