A combination of two bourbon mashbills - a wheated and a ryed - and finished for six months in French oak barrels for an unforgettable layer of complexity. Aromas of honey, vanilla, and caramel. Smoothness from the barrel finish with hints of chocolate and oak on the palate. Long, warm finish with hints of spicy oak.

This evokes walking into a cabin deep in the woods, surrounded by fresh cut oak, as wisps of pine boughs and resin pour in on the wind, along with earth and warm cocoa. The palate is pleasingly plush, with vanilla sweetness that suggests orange Creamsicle, almond pastry, and plenty of toasty oak. There is also some fresh orange zest and grated ginger, with only a gentle suggestion of spice.
