What Our Editors Thought

“Subtle cinnamon-spice aroma with supporting caramel tones. Dries out in the flavor as the spice and tannins buffer the caramel sweetness.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Spicy nose, hints of cinnamon, light oak, vanilla. Leaves a Mexican-chocolate impression throughout. Flavor includes some capsicum, chocolate, light coffee. Somewhat thin body highlights the spice and unusual wood.”

What the Brewers Say

“Bourbon barrel–aged in Brazilian amburana wood.”
