Category: American Single Malt Whiskey

Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of cinnamon honey graham crackers, pineapple, orange, guava, papaya and coconut, vanilla caramel cream, cinnamon, nutmeg, and and cumin with a round, vibrant, dryish medium body and a tingling, complex, medium-long finish with notes of cinnamon honey, fig and toasted coconut, hazelnut, and guava. Traditional single malt grain sweetness with some secondary wine cask influence adding layers of dried red fruit and tropical notes; tasty and a lot of fun.
