HOW TO SERVE

A bold Bourbon that could work in a wide range of cocktails but we strongly suggest that you sip it neat with perhaps one large cube of ice.

X-FACTOR

An amazingly decadent and complex Bourbon worthy of a special occasion.

TASTING NOTE

Brilliant, dark chestnut color. The aromatics are very intense, giving aromas of dark chocolate, molasses, and smoked meat with supporting notes of cocoa and coffee. The palate echoes the nose delivering a chocolate-driven core with supporting flavors of charred oak, cigar box, toffee, and vanilla bean. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and ideally balanced with a rich texture.
