Flavor Profile
What to Expect: This bottle leans toward Sweet & Dessert-Like, Smoky & Earthy, and Oak & Wood notes. Specific descriptors include caramel, char / smoke, toasted oak, and vanilla.
Brown rice stands in for rye in this small-batch recipe, finished with a second aging in a toasted-then-flash-charred barrel; toasted oak, dried fruit, and caramelized sugar lead to vanilla and a sweet caramel finish.
What Defines This Bottle
Age
This bottle carries no single stated age. Federal labeling rules only require an age statement when a whiskey is younger than 4 years, so a bottle without one may be genuinely young or simply old enough that stating it became optional.
