Tasting notes
The flagship expression. Aged 4–6 years in new American white oak, then finished up to 6 months in port wine casks imported from Portugal's Douro Valley. Subtle vanilla, raisins, and maple on the nose; ripe fruit, toast, and bittersweet chocolate on the palate; clean, lingering sweetness on the finish. Bottled at 86.6 proof.
