Finish:
Comments:
This whiskey offers a nicely balanced flavor profile that’s bright and luscious. It has a moderate nose burn that’s more florally fragrant than it is menacing in intensity. Zesty citrus flavor pleasantly warms up the ambient baking spices that firmly cling to the palate in a slightly smooth, dry long finish.
