Nose
Spicy with dark licorice notes, baked and spiced apple, dark floral and rose notes, very much a recognizable bourbon character.
Palate
Soft upfront on the tongue with buttery and creamy qualities, transitions to spicy as it works toward the back of the palate, punchy finish with cinnamon spice, coats the mouth with a rich texture.
Finish
Long, buttery, and creamy with lingering cinnamon spice and candied jalapeño notes, growing warmth on the back of the palate.
Overall Score
4.6 / 5
A remarkably impressive four-year-old craft bourbon that delivers buttery softness with sophisticated spice complexity at barrel proof, showing what small distilleries can achieve when executing every step themselves.
