HOW TO SERVE
The complex flavors lead us to serving this Whisky on the rocks but the same attributes suggest great stirred or shaken cocktails like the Toronto, Old Fashioned, or a classic Highball.
X-FACTOR
Depth of flavor and great versatility are this Whisky's calling card.
TASTING NOTE
Bright, medium copper color. The nose is subtle, offering scents of baked apple, cinnamon, toffee, and oak with supporting notes of dark chocolate, sour cherry, and caramel. The palate is in full agreement with the nose delivering a toffee-driven core with supporting flavors of cereal, fig, dried fruits, and vanilla. The finish is long. Medium-bodied and favorably balanced with a velvety texture.
