Age: 8-year 4-months

Proof: 117.64 proof

Mash bill: 75/13/12 Corn/Rye/Malted barley 

Tasting Notes: Mature dried oak, sweeter leather, dried black tea, and orange zest lead the nose before transitioning into richer notes of heavy demerara syrup and just a touch of blackberry compote.

The palate is punchy and in your face. It starts with that blackberry compote from the nose but quickly moves into a creamy back and forth of cinnamon, pepper, and cane sugar before throwing a curveball with lemon-lime soda concentrate, toffee, and charred oak.

The finish is rich and spiced, but still keeps giving up sweeter oak notes well into a long finish of dried cherry, cranberry, golden raisin, and mint-kissed blackberry syrup.
