Distilled on custom Vendome copper column still and aged in Independent Stave Company custom Cooper Select barrels with 18-24 month seasoned staves.

Tasting Notes:
Proof: 90 (45% ABV)
Age: 4-5 Years
Mashbill: 73% Corn / 19% Rye / 8% Malted Barley
Production: Small Batch (30 barrels or fewer) | Sweet Mash Process
Appearance: Warm amber-golden to tawny with excellent legs and decent viscosity, reflecting quality barrel aging.
Aroma: Well-balanced and inviting with layers of brown sugar, dark cherries, and plums alongside sweet caramel and glazed cinnamon rolls. Complemented by vanilla, candied pecans, clove, a touch of orange citrus, light cedar, and gentle rye spice. The sweet mash process brings forward exceptional grain character.
Palate: Noticeably buttery and dessert-forward with mellow sweet oak dominating the flavor profile. Rich notes of caramel, toffee, butterscotch, cherry, and vanilla cream create a luxurious mouthfeel. Candied pecans and light dry oak add complexity while maintaining an approachable sweetness throughout.
Finish: Warming and long with a pleasant jolt of white pepper spice that quickly settles. Charred oak, milk chocolate, coffee notes reminiscent of Kahlua, mixed nuts, and lingering mild rye spices provide excellent depth. A hint of dark cherries returns on the tail with persistent warmth.
