Tasting Notes

Nose

The nose doesnt leap out at you as aggressively as Wild Turkey often can. Rather, Unforgotten teases out playfully, leading with caramel and honey undergirded by subtle stewed pear and peppery notes of caraway and cinnamon. Time in the glass saw the caramel retreat and the honey notes become more prominent around a gorgeous lemon curd bouquet. After several hours in the glass, the fruit subsided and the wood came to the fore, with the oak and vanilla wrapped in a gently smoky cloud of leather.

Palate

Caramel dipped dried fig and dried apricot flavors, redolent of a gourmet fruit cake, leap out and then give way to some sweet oak and subtle anise before those caraway notes that so playfully dotted the nose linger on the palate with a hint of chocolate and tannin. If there is any place where I found myself wishing for more it was the finish. It is not clipped by any means, and is in fact medium-long, but with each sip I kept finding its last notes slipping away from my palate sooner than I hoped, like a charming date who abruptly exits dinner in the middle of an enchanting conversation.
