Sensory Description:

Your journey begins as the rich auburn liquid elegantly coats the glass, hinting at the full-bodied experience that awaits. The initial aroma is a welcoming embrace of caramel and vanilla, beautifully balanced with warm oak and a whisper of mild baking spices. Subtle notes of green apple, citrus, and sherry add a delightful complexity. As you take your first sip, sweet caramel, and vanilla caress the front of your tongue while cinnamon and rye bread spices dance through, leading to a crescendo of heat and smoothness at a perfect 100 proof. Undertones of brown and malt sugars subtly emerge, enriching the tapestry of flavors. The finish is a masterful symphony of vanilla, oak, baking spices, warming spice, raisin, and seasoned oak, leaving a medium to long impression that beckons for another glass.
