Nose: Fresh Madagascan vanilla pod, caramelized toffee and dark roast coffee with hints of lavender honey.
Palate: Smooth and mellow through the mouth. Notes of smoked meats, with nuances of hops and white pepper spice with an overlay of wet river stone are the signature flavors of this complex barrel proof whiskey.
Finish: Creme brulee sweet crust followed by a light Habano tobacco smokiness.

Nose: The aroma is thick with wood — as you might expect — and notes of vanilla and butterscotch over cinnamon apple tart.
Palate: On the tongue you'll find classic baking spices up front followed by notes of roasted almonds, sweet bell pepper, fresh wood, and a hint of apple.
Finish: The finish is medium length with a lingering spice.
