This is immediately off-putting with the overwhelming sweetness one typically finds with highly-sweetened flavored whiskeys — not particularly evident as toffee but rather a vanilla-heavy brown sugar and caramel character that dominates the aroma completely.

NOSE: big and complex with layers of caramel, vanilla, and sweet honey

PALATE: full bodied golden caramel flavor combined with a bitter note of nutty walnut

FINISH: a sweet reminder of lingering burnt sugar and warmth
