4.0
The nose begins with a blend of charred oak, ripe fruit, and earthy rye, all reminiscent of a dessert wine. There's not much more to add, as it is very harmonious and creates great anticipation for the first sip. The palate is full and oaky, with a distinct spiciness that fills the mouth. In the background, there are some creamier notes of brown sugar and fruit, but the primary profile here is the distinctive oak. The flavor remains robust as it sits, maintaining dominant spicy oak notes. The finish is long and unique, featuring a vastly different type of oak with nuances that provide a distinct experience. It's almost like encountering qualities of Japanese single malt meeting bourbon.
