corn and malted barley
Nose
Brown sugar, kettle corn, barrel and oak notes, baked banana bread with nuts, raisins, caramel, vanilla, and a pronounced ethanol punch from the high proof.
Palate
Rich and spicy with light oak; sweet marshmallow notes reminiscent of Lucky Charms cereal, dark cherries and stone fruits, grilled peaches, chocolate and graham cracker elements, with nuts and raisins contributing to a baked apple dessert character.
Finish
Medium to long finish with a warm, present hug that builds as you drink; the spice and sweetness persist without coating the tongue heavily.
Top notch
An impressively well-blended, high-proof craft bourbon with excellent balance between youth and maturity, delivering complex sweet and spicy notes that merit seeking out and sipping all day long.
