Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with mahogany undertones and a coppery sheen.
Nose
Opulent dark-fruit bouquet: black cherry and molasses meld with honeysuckle, while roasted pecans add depth. Toasted charred oak threads through, leaving smoky, caramelized warmth that hints at extraordinary aging and refinement.
Palate
On the palate this 57.1% bourbon unfurls with opulent richness and restrained heat. Black cherry and dark molasses weave with honeysuckle’s floral sweetness, while roasted pecans lend toasty, nutty depth. Toasted charred oak threads through, delivering smoky spice and a velvety mouthfeel, finishing long with caramel, oak and lingering fruit.
Finish
A long, dignified finish where dark cherry and rich molasses coat the palate, followed by roasted pecan and toasted charred oak. A delicate honeysuckle sweetness softens the edges as the warmth lingers, with spicy oak notes carrying into a persistent, refined tail.
