Gold color. Aromas and flavors of frosted shredded wheat, butter cookies with artisan cola, tooled leather furniture and wood smoke, and cedar and pickling spices with a silky, vibrant, dryish medium-to-full body and a hot, complex, long finish evoking overtones of caramelized roasted nuts, singed spices, cigar box, and pumice. A densely packed, spicy, oaky American Single Malt Whisky that needs a little time and water to open up and reveal itself.

Beam’s first American single malt—the initial run was limited, but this is a permanent addition to the Beam lineup. Baking bread, honey-wheat pretzels, candy shop, and hot chocolate on the nose. The palate is malty and chocolaty, with oats and honey, and burnt toast. A moderate-length finish is somewhat less sweet, with barrel char, dark chocolate, espresso beans, cinnamon, and pepper spice. Sweetness balanced with toast, char, and grain on the finish.
