“An herbal nose opens with dark black tea and a touch of sweetness, framed by pronounced oak, burnt sugar, and brûlée. The palate is lighter in style and notably floral, with tea and honey unfolding over gentle oak tannin on the finish. Mild and harmonious throughout, this is a bourbon for those who prefer a more subdued pour with earthy, terroir-driven notes shining through.” —Skurnik Whisk(e)y Portfolio
