Tasting Notes

Nose: A sophisticated and inviting bouquet featuring rich caramel, toasted oak, and vanilla bean, seamlessly intertwined with delicate hints of dried dark fruits like fig and plum. Subtle spice notes of cinnamon and nutmeg emerge, underscored by a characteristic creamy maple sweetness and a faint whisper of rye spice.

Palate: The entry is remarkably smooth and full-bodied, coating the palate with layers of sweet crème brûlée, butterscotch, and warm baking spices. The influence of extended oak aging is evident, presenting notes of seasoned wood and leather without overwhelming the sweet core. A gentle peppery spice and a nuttiness (think roasted almonds) provide a delightful counterpoint to the sweetness, leading to a complex and harmonious mid-palate.

Finish: Long, warming, and elegant, the finish gradually fades with lingering notes of sweet vanilla, soft oak tannins, and a gentle spice. A final whisper of maple syrup and dark fruit ensures a memorable and satisfying conclusion, inviting another sip.
