Tasting Notes

Appearance:

A radiant copper hue, reflecting the depth and complexity of the blend.

Nose:

Layers of chamomile tea and fresh lemon, followed by chardonnay, pear, and dried pineapple. A touch of beeswax, white chocolate, and wheat cracker adds richness, while a lively piquancy evokes ginger ale and minerality.

Palate:

A complex interplay of herbs and citrus, with thyme, lemon balm, and peppermint leading the way. The vibrant notes of Meyer lemon and key lime pie shift into exotic fruit flavors like lychee and grape soda. Over time, the oak influence builds, bringing notes of allspice and vanilla.

Finish:

A brief, electrifying flash of wasabi awakens the senses, followed by a velvety coating of tea tree oil, grapefruit, and fried plantain. The finish lingers with hints of maraschino liqueur, rosehip, and coconut water.

With a Splash of Water:

The whiskey blooms with papaya, passionfruit, and orange marmalade, enhancing its fruity complexity. Tart cherry, applesauce, and cantaloupe emerge, while the lower proof creates a richer, creamier, and spicier mouthfeel.
