Nose
Rich and sweet with fig, honey, and warm leather. Christmas spice character with fig paste notes reminiscent of Fig Newtons. Deep, rich honey aroma. Not aggressive with alcohol despite 110 proof.
Palate
Spicy with pepper forward notes. Creamy and sticky with fig, molasses, and rich dark honey flavors. Scorched molasses character from barrel influence. No drying or bitterness, very smooth and oily.
Finish
Medium to long finish with lingering viscosity on the palate. Chocolate notes emerge with continued sipping.
Impressive
An exceptional weeded bourbon with a unique spicy profile, rich sweetness, and impressive depth that competes with premium pedigree brands.
