Deep, rich sweetness with prominent caramel and syrup notes (pancake syrup, maple). Strong oak presence. Pronounced vanilla extraction from the barrel.

Immediate hit of front-end sweetness traveling back the palate. Rich syrup character balanced by substantial oak power. Notes of black licorice and anise. Full-bodied with good integration of spice.

Oak intensifies mid-palate moving to the back end. Spice builds with heat on the finish.
