HOW TO SERVE

Serve neat or with a splash of water. It has many cocktail applications — a Robert Burns cocktail is a smart choice.

X-FACTOR

The judges loved that this is a Whiskey without borders — borrowing some Scottish and Irish traits while made in America.

TASTING NOTE

Brilliant, deep golden color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of cereal, charred oak, baking spices, nutmeg, and gingerbread with supporting notes of candied ginger, stone fruit, toffee, and mocha. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering an oak-driven core with supporting flavors of orange peel, smoked meat, black cherry, and allspice. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and favorably balanced with a meaty texture.
