Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The nose opens with a dessert-forward bouquet featuring toasted marshmallows, dark chocolate, and vanilla bean balanced by seasoned oak. Baking spices, roasted corn, grape candy, and subtle milk chocolate notes emerge, with appropriate alcohol vapor for the proof creating an inviting, full-bodied aroma.
👅 Palate
The palate transitions from sweet to savory, opening with hard caramel candy and vanilla custard before revealing rich dark chocolate fudge and toasted oak warmth. Mid-palate shows creamy texture with baking spices, red fruit, and subtle smoky notes, though darker flavors fade somewhat quickly. The mouthfeel is coating and silky despite the 98 proof.
✨ Finish
The finish is warm, lingering, and full-bodied with moderate white pepper spice, dark cherries, and increasingly dry oak character. A pleasing rye spice settles in the chest with luxurious mouth-coating viscosity and lingering sweet oak notes that beckon another pour.
