Flavor Profile
What to Expect: This bottle leans toward Smoky & Earthy, Sweet & Dessert-Like, and Fruity notes. Specific descriptors include campfire, caramel, dark fruit (fig, raisin, plum), and tobacco leaf.
The same 17-year liquid aged at the humid Frankfort, Kentucky campus, where slower airflow slows maturation; delicate oak, campfire, and cigar box lead to concentrated caramel and raisin with gentle floral tobacco, finishing on sweet, aged wood.
