Nose: A potent, high-proof blast of fresh mint, spearmint gum, and cinnamon, balanced by notes of stewed red apples, caramel, and dry toasted oak
Palate: A thick, oily, and intense wave of rye spice, aniseed, and herbal tea, followed by zesty lemon-lime soda, green apple, and creamy vanilla
Finish: A long, lingering, and slightly drying finish of sugary cinnamon roll, star anise, cedar shavings, and lingering minty heat.

Nose: Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high proof youthful.
Palate: A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel.
Finish: The finish is long and the spices dominate this batch, while the cherry does punch its way through to the surface.
