Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

The generous aging regime has marked this whiskey with a deep mahogany color and imparted delightful aromas of skillet fried bacon, toasted clove, and tangerine peel. The palate offers a blast of rock candy and then settles into a long finish of fruitcake and fresh caramel.
