Flavor Profile
What to Expect: This bottle leans toward Sweet & Dessert-Like and Oak & Wood notes. Specific descriptors include caramel, coconut, and vanilla.
The same 17-year liquid aged at the sun-drenched Boston, Kentucky campus, where widely spaced rackhouses accelerate maturation; toasted marshmallow, dark chocolate, and coconut lead to soft caramel, vanilla, oak, and faded hazelnut, finishing with sweet baking spices.
