Nose

Deep, dark fruit with molasses and sweetness from Pedro Jimenez sherry casks; rich and complex.

Palate

Layered with base bourbon flavors of cinnamon and fig enhanced by intense molasses and deep fruit from sherry finish; very spicy with black pepper and jalapeno warmth; viscous and rich.

Finish

Long, warm, spicy finish with lingering molasses and sherry influence.

Noteworthy
A rich, warming winter sipper where sherry finishing layers sweet and fruity complexity onto the wheated bourbon foundation without overwhelming the core bourbon character.
