Official tasting notes:
Heavy Toasted Heads
“Brown sugar, cherry, spice – similar to a classic cherry soda fountain drink. Clove, liquorice, nutmeg, with a touch of citrus and tobacco on the finish. The heavy toast heads add to the richer spice and earthen notes. Spending time in all three environments, it’s quite a unique profile for this age and mashbill. While typically spice heavy and rye grain forward, the grain has aged out and more of the barrel influence comes forth. “An extra fizzy cherry cola from a old school soda fountain.”
