What Our Editors Thought
“Chocolate and a bit of cinnamon spice in the aroma, Old Fitz-style, with some evolving nuttier tones and deep charred oak. Sweet initially in the sip, with some broad peanut and hazelnut notes alongside Belgian waffle with Nutella. That sweetness holds without cloying in the finish, gradually giving way to the strong and warming bourbon exhale. Finds indulgent and compelling flavor and aroma without pushing mouthfeel to the extreme.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Sweet bourbon nose with notes of vanilla, chocolate-covered cherries, Fig Newtons. The flavor is a boozy fig jam with notes of dark and red fruit covered in chocolate dripping in vanilla, soaked in bourbon. Medium to full body. Sweeter notes on the finish fall into a drier tannic state that asks you to take another sip.”
What the Brewers Say
“Blend of stouts rested in W.L Weller, Eagle Rare, Weller Full Proof, Willett Bourbon, and Willett Rye casks.”
