Amber color. Aromas of hazelnut-studded dark chocolate, herbal tea, and honey with a velvety, vibrant, dry medium-to-full body and a warming, intricate, long sweet tea, salted chocolate, french silk pie, and nutella finish. A silky-smooth, sophisticated dram at an exceptional value.

Delightfully rich on the nose, with grape jelly, raspberries, Raisinets, buttered pecans, toffee, dark chocolate, baking spice, leather, and the old oak smell of a rickhouse. Chewy and viscous, the palate shows excellent consistency, balancing raisins, Concord grape jelly, baking spice, and dark chocolate with coffee bean, cola, and lush oak. A lengthy and elegant finish highlights mocha, grape skins, cinnamon, black pepper, and rich oak.
