Legs are eager to form before slowly drooping. Enticing viscosity.
Nose:
Super concentrated richness of leather, nutmeg, wet paint, cinnamon, custard and char. Bright and polished.
Palate:
Oily and dense; liquefied wax consistency. Brightly leathery with tobacco and spicy char, primarily. Dense layers of sweet honey-glazed tobacco and maple ooze forth as a dried-fruit twang lies buried beneath the richness. Oak never intrudes, but provides support by pillaring substantial weight. Weighty with a deeply satisfying sappiness which soothes the tongue and wedges itself within the spicy char and drying alcohol.
Finish: Char lingers and anchors cinnamon sticks and aniseed. Extremely long.
Comment: A late-at-night bourbon seemingly constructed for late-night pondering. Pure and decadent. Beautiful stuff.
