Joseph Magnus

Nose
Deep, rich bourbon nose with heavy oak and heavier notes. Candied orange or marmalade-like character. Citrusy elements with floral notes throughout. Complex and inviting.
Palate
Rich, well-aged bourbon at its foundation. Sweetness coming through from the multiple finishes. Notes of cherry present. Heavier oak tannins with emerging leather and tobacco. Tartness reminiscent of green apple tarts or sweet tarts—a tart, slightly bitter mid-palate quality. Integrated fruit influence from the barrel finishes.
Finish
Appears fine without excessive harshness or off-notes.
Top notch
A special, memorable pour that represents a beautiful integration of triple cask finishing, worthy of seeking out and exceptional as a gift for special occasions.
