Factors such as the oak species, level of toasting, and coopering of the cask each leave a unique mark on the slumbering spirit. The oak itself was previously influenced by the grape variety and terroir of the winery from which we sourced these barriques; thus, the wood adds distinctive layers of complexity, depth and charm.

NOSE: Notes of dark chocolate, caramel, heather honey, blackcurrant, caramelized brown sugar, and cinnamon spices.
