T8ke's Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Brown sugar, maple, big cola, black pepper, some baking spice and sweet oak pop first on the nose. It's rich, not too heavy, has a pleasant pop of vanilla bean, toffee, nougat and desserts, baking spice, honey. Grows richer as it sits, pleasant and dessert forward.
- Taste: Palate is big and balanced. It's rich yet natural, dense and layered without being syrupy. Sits really nicely at 50% ABV - strong and bold enough to bring together a lot of flavor without being punchy or raw. Sweet vanilla, baking spice, waffle cone, big cola, balancing spice, sweet toffee, waffle cone, cake batter, demerara sugar, some maple. The oak comes and fades, only to show again - really nicely integrated. Easy drinking but really rich. This has the texture to work really well in a number of cocktails: classics like an old fashioned but would 100% make a Lions Tail with this.
- Finish: Long finish, heavy, rich, viscous with pleasant brown sugar, buttery caramels, tobacco, light honey and a final pop of oak. Really exceptionally balanced.
- Cocktail Recommendation: Old Fashioned, Lion's Tale
