Nose
Warm wheat bread and caramel lead, followed by a gentle wave of butterscotch and dried orange peel. A soft floral note — almost carnation — sits underneath, with toasted oak in the background.
Palate
Creamy entry with vanilla custard and maple sweetness that broadens into baking spice. Mid-palate brings charred oak and a whisper of dark cocoa, balanced by the wheated mash bill's soft, rounded texture.
Finish
Medium-long and warming, with butterscotch lingering alongside dried wheat and a faint leather note.
