Nose: Sweet brown sugar, toasted oak, and hints of dark spice, with some variations including banana, vanilla wafer, and even marshmallow notes.
Palate: Viscous mouthfeel with sweet banana nut bread, caramel, and a noticeable warmth from the high proof, balanced by a touch of cherry and oak.
Finish: Lingering banana and oak, with the sweetness giving way to a more pronounced oak and spice, sometimes described as burnt or charred.

Nose: Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high proof youthful.
Palate: A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel.
Finish: The finish is long and the spices dominate this batch, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface.
