Nose: Rich aromas of roasted hazelnuts and grilled peaches greet you, followed by zesty orange and grapefruit peel. Hints of cocoa and buttercream add depth, while caramel, milk chocolate, and dried figs round out the complex bouquet.
Palate: The taste is both rich and bright, with layered sweetness. Chocolate-covered dates and figs dominate, accompanied by dried apricots and caramelized oranges. The 104 proof delivers a warming sensation without overpowering the delicate flavors imparted by the Tokaji cask finish.
Finish: Long and satisfying, with lingering notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, and a subtle oakiness. The sweetness from the Tokaji casks persists, leaving a pleasant honey-like essence. A gentle spice reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg emerges, providing a balanced and complex conclusion.
This unique bourbon starts its journey with 14 years of aging in new charred American oak barrels before being finished for 6 months in ex-Hungarian Tokaji casks.
