The aroma is a captivating blend of roasted malt, dark chocolate, and vanilla, with hints of oak and bourbon from the 15-month aging process in bourbon barrels. The flavor is nothing short of decadent, with notes of chocolate, caramel, and toffee that dance across the palate. The bourbon barrel aging adds a touch of oak and vanilla, creating a smooth and warming finish that lingers pleasantly.
