Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, with a harmonious blend of bourbon's sweetness and rye's spice. Flavors of toasted oak, dark caramel, and vanilla mingle with dried fruit and a touch of saffron. The bitters add complexity with herbal and citrus undertones.
Finish: Long and warming, with lingering notes of baking spices, particularly cinnamon and clove. The finish is pleasantly dry, with a subtle tannic quality reminiscent of fine tea, balanced by a gentle sweetness and a final whisper of orange peel.
