Nose
Aged wine-cellar character with funk, old French oak, nutty almond notes, and golden raisins.
Palate
Rich, concentrated, and syrupy with honey-roasted almonds, golden and dark raisins, dried figs, and deep vinous character.
Finish
Nutty and long with lingering French oak influence.
Really good
The oldest whiskey Lost Lantern has released—a concentrated, port-like expression where French oak Sauternes aging creates deep nuttiness and vinous richness.
