The complexity is obvious: a bouquet of dried fruit and hazelnut overlayed with notes of exotic fruits.

Mouthcoatingly rich, sweet, and intriguingly spiced on the palate it shows some of the wood’s American Bourbon history, honeycomb and cereal, which all come through similarly on its sherbet style finish.
