Hot damn! I have found a new favourite whiskey. The nose is comparable to an Oloroso finished scotch, but it is its own whiskey. I found one sip to be an incredibly sensual experience. It is basically an aphrodisiac and charcuterie board combined. It is spicy like a rye, but is full bodied with lots of flavor. The raisin and dried fruit will appeal to wine lovers as well as whiskey drinkers.rnrnIt’s a whiskey like none other, and I highly recommend enjoying it in a bubble bath.
