Nose
Honey, vanilla, delicate oak, cinnamon, and sweet citrus notes like lime and chocolate limes, evolving to apples, pears, bananas, and cherries. Minerally with hints of rye spice and black cherry.
Palate
Sweet and creamy with prominent bourbon barrel flavors of vanilla, honey, and coconut milk. Fruity notes of banoffee pie, white chocolate, tropical fruits, and cherries, balanced by spicy oak, pepper, cloves, and a touch of bitterness.
Finish
Medium to long, with lingering vanilla, sweet orange, and bitter oak. Spicy with notes of allspice, nutmeg, and a tannic dryness.
