Golden amber color. Fruity aromas and flavors of dried apricot, fresh butter, and apple cinnamon cheerios with a satiny, vibrant, fruity medium-full body and a warming, subtle, very long finish evoking notes of apple cinnamon butter, root beer float, butterscotch bread pudding, and sweet and peppery spices. An extremely charming and approachable blended Whiskey that will be a superbly satisfying evening companion.

Toffee up front, with vanilla, green apple, pot still spice, milk chocolate, peppercorn, ground ginger, and aromatic hints of coffee. To taste, a bounty of toffee, chocolate, espresso, tobacco, vanilla pod, and burnt sugar notes, with coriander seed and fennel spices, then burnt orange and more coffee before a delicious creaminess spills over. The integration of chocolate and coffee notes really elevates this vintage as a particularly fine whiskey.
