Awards/Reviews:

"Dark amber color accented with a beautiful ruby hue. As the aromas in the whiskey reached the nose I was impressed by the slightly dusty quality that opens the door for rich Mcintosh apples and a considerable oak presence. Soon those notes are joined by the scent of pie crust, nutmeg, and date syrup. There’s even a bit of a stout beer aroma that merges with a flourish of cedar cigar box and a dry floral aspect over time. Moving from the nose to the mouth, it bursts with macerated red fruit and black pepper before transitioning to a lengthy and juicy finish. Caramel, blood orange, and the creamy meat of Brazil nuts also present themselves on the palate although they’re all outperformed by the wine aspects of the finishing cask. All in all this is a fantastic whiskey blend that delivers flavor in spades for a unique tasting experience." - Drinkhacker (A-)
