Sensory Description:

• Aroma: The nose opens with inviting notes of strawberry cream, sweet corn, and apple fritter, layered with hints of fresh-baked bread, cinnamon sugar, and a light, sweet freshness. There’s also a subtle touch of spice and honey, evoking freshly cut spring flowers and ripe orchard fruits with an intriguing musty undertone reminiscent of a used bookstore.
• Palate: The palate delivers a creamy blend of orange and mint, with underlying tones of cereal grain and agave. Mild oak presence and a nutty hint with a slight bitterness add complexity, complemented by a round, unctuous mouthfeel that transitions from fruity richness to a mineralic, tannic finish. The bourbon is mild-mannered and approachable, making it a delightful sip for both new and seasoned bourbon drinkers.
• Finish: The finish ramps up with a pleasant spice and pepper, joined by toasted oak, vanilla, and a touch of smoke. The lingering pepper aftertaste leaves a warm, inviting sensation.
