On the nose, a mellow introduction of barrel tannins, rye spice, and subtle herbal notes rises through faint wisps of vanilla, burnt caramel, bittersweet chocolate, and toasted hazelnuts. Hints of damp oak and charred wood evoke the warmth of an open fire. The palate follows with creamy caramel, cereal sweetness, and earthy malt, offset by a rush of cinnamon, pepper, and rye that builds toward a commanding finish. The texture is thick, velvety, and gripping, offering a smoky, wood-forward finale that lingers with notes of chocolate, black pepper, and toasted oak.
