What Our Editors Thought
“Nutella and Toblerone on the nose, hazelnut with a crispy bready wafer note and boozy nutty bass tones. Lighter in the sip than the nose suggests, only semisweet with some bitter chocolate, more toasted hazelnut, and a bourbon oak swagger. Fit and limber like a retiree yogi.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Aromas of bourbon with molasses, sweet caramel, oak, heavy brown sugar. Flavor is sweet, warming. Layers of bourbon, vanilla, leather intertwine. Some molasses, in both viscosity and flavor. A wonderful sipper.”
What the Brewers Say
“A blend of different barrel types and vintages.”
