Nose: Rich and expressive with deep caramel, brown sugar, and toasted oak. Undertones of cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of dark cherry emerge with time in the glass.
Palate: Full-bodied and bold, layers of vanilla bean, spiced toffee, and baked apple. The high proof delivers warmth without overwhelming the nuanced flavors, balancing sweetness with a peppery rye spice kick.
Finish: Long and warming, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, clove, and leather. A touch of orange peel appear late.
