Tasting notes
Tasting Notes
Nose:
Aromatic notes of orange and clove, complemented by earthy mushrooms, ripe apricots, baking spices, oak, and hints of brown sugar.
Palate:
Delicate yet balanced, with a mix of apricot, mushrooms, oak, green apple, warm bread, maple, and a touch of baking spices. This whiskey offers a subtle sweetness on the front, with savory undertones for depth.
Finish:Rich and gentle, with a lingering sweetness that fades into toasted burnt sugar, baking spices, smoky fruit, and candied cherries, transitioning from bourbon-like characteristics to a rye finish.
