X-FACTOR

The judges loved the malt and spice — it’s creamy, sweet, and it just rolls over the tongue.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, medium copper color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of dried fruits, ginger biscuits, and malted barley with supporting notes of brioche, vanilla, and honey. The palate is in substantial agreement with the nose delivering a malted barley-driven core with flavors of butterscotch, oak, roasted nuts, and clove. The finish is long and supple. Full-bodied and nicely balanced with a creamy texture.
