Description

***** Highest Recommendation, F. Paul Pacult (Spirit Journal): “The rust/orange/bronze appearance is dazzling and lovely; impeccable purity. The opening passes pick up evolved notes of baked pears, peach, and caramel corn; six more minutes of air contact release even more succulent fragrances of hazelnut, newly tanned leather, baked pineapple, and nougat. The palate entry is long, luxuriously textured, nutty, and semisweet; by the midpalate juncture the taste profile adds deep flavors of vanilla extract, oak, honey, and sugar maple. Ends with finesse and presence. Sensational and one of the benchmark single barrel bourbons in the marketplace.”

95 points and ‘Top 100 Spirits of 2016,’ Wine Enthusiast: “[$120 list] Due to inventory shortages, this bottling had been discontinued; in fall 2015, it returned after a three-year hiatus. This is a robust, full-flavored whiskey, scented with oak and toffee. It tastes almost like an Old Fashioned, meaning distinct orange peel and cherry notes intertwined with the vanilla and caramel. The long finish offers vanilla, oak and orange peel. 15,000 bottles released. Alcohol 45%. (Sep 2016)”

94 points The Tasting Panel: “[$120 list] A Double Gold Winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, this spirit made us fall in love immediately when we caught the scent of walnut cream and mandarin orange. At 90 proof, flavors of peppered peaches greet the palate with high-toned hints of orange blossoms and hazelnut. Butter and maple syrup melt on the finish. (Mar 2018)”
