Nose
Honeyed almond, mint, and fruitcake notes, with sweet caramel, vanilla custard, and hints of dates or raisins. Underlying scents of seasoned and charred oak, rye spice, and leather are present, alongside graham crackers, toasted marshmallows, and brown sugar.
Palate
Boldly spicy with prominent rye notes and a touch of licorice. Flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract mingle with cherries, dates, and sweet caramel. Aged dry oak, honey, and brown sugar contribute to a complex profile.
Finish
A long and vanilla-like finish, featuring brown sugar and smoky oak. Drying oak and hard caramel candies are present, with a lingering spiced heat and notes of cloves and black pepper.
