Tasting Notes:
Nose:
Rich and inviting, the aroma opens with layers of dark caramel, charred oak, and vanilla bean, followed by hints of dried cherry, baking spice, and toasted pecan.
Palate:
Full-bodied and intense, the first sip bursts with deep notes of toffee, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Mid-palate reveals a balance of oak spice and leather, with subtle undertones of stone fruit and dark chocolate.
Finish:
Long, warming, and satisfyingly dry. Waves of clove, black pepper, and a touch of tobacco linger, giving way to a final whisper of sweet oak and honeycomb.
