Aged 8.5 years and finished with French Oak staves, this 117 proof whiskey is rich, tasty and oh-so-balanced! Enjoy neat, on ice or in your favorite whiskey cocktail. The nose is filled with baking spices, cacao, toasted oak, apple peel and sweet toffee. The palate reiterates the nose adding caramel, vanila bean and a touch of sassafras to the cocoa/toffee/spice. The finish is long and lively with echoes of vanilla cream, more toffee and a touch of mineral.
