Tasting Notes

Nose

Red grape, very fruity and floral. It is a little overwhelming to be honest, and it takes a minute to peer through the rich fruity notes to find the grains and whiskey. While exploring the flavors I get a hint of melted butter and barley. The alcohol is present which interferes with taking long sustained whiffs. It is all together pleasant but wine forward.

Palate

Start to finish, front to back, this tasted like Peach-O candy dipped in whiskey. It was sweet like white sugar, with peach essence and just a hint of tartness. Letting the sample open up I was able to get some nice woody notes that tie the sweetness together, but I was always brought back to Peach-Os. The finish is very well done. It is smooth and just holds its flavor. We do escape the candy notes on the finish and hold with soft notes of fresh leather and malt. It dries your mouth out but not in an unsavory way.
