THE DISTILLER’S TASTING NOTES

Nose: Crisp apple, pumpkin spice and ground black pepper
Brown sugar, American oak and lemon peel. Apple and spices still going strong. All in all, this batch follows the path beaten by our previous expression : great balance between the signature notes of the American Bourbon, a hint of cream and just enough heat from the spicy overtones.
