What Our Editors Thought
“Cacao husk and caramel chips on the nose, with an almost sun-dried distance and focus underscored by heavy spirits. Rich cacao in the sip rides along with hefty caramel layers and light herbal bitterness.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Deep hits of tobacco and a light acidic component in the nose. Barrel-led flavor with vanilla and caramel, cinnamon and coconut. Light roast slides in and out; a long, sweet finish with more cinnamon, fresh oak, and pepper.”
What the Brewers Say
“Fermented in Old Fitzgerald barrels before heading into Blanton’s barrels.”
