Bold nose with gingerbread, baking spice, graham cracker, and moderate alcohol presence. More pronounced than the older Heaven Hill bottled in bond.

Full-flavored and robust with baking spice character that carries across the mid-palate. A light bitterness on the back end that is tamed by a splash of water, which brings out front-end sweetness.

Coats the sides and back of the mouth well with good persistence. A touch of dryness balanced by the overall character.
