HOW TO SERVE
It's amazing neat, with a splash of water, over one large rock, or in a stirred cocktail like Old Fashioned or Manhattan that showcases its superlative nature.
X-FACTOR
The judges loved the balance and length as it wears its alcohol strength well.
TASTING NOTE
Bright, pale golden color. The aromatics are very intense, giving scents of smoke, cereal, baked apple, and apricot with supporting notes of ginger, black tea, and dried fruits. The palate substantially agrees with the nose delivering a cereal-driven core with flavors akin to almonds, dried fruits, mineral, and toasted grains. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and pleasingly balanced with a silky texture.
