Nose
Fine and inviting—ripe green pear, lemon-zest and white peach meld with light biscuit-crumb and a whisper of marzipan. The ex-bourbon barrels lend soft vanilla and honeyed grain, while the sherry component introduces dark cherry and subtle dried fruit.
Palate
Medium-bodied, smooth, with elegance. The fruit character continues: orchard fruit, gentle tart red-berry, and a clean grain-core expression. Mid-palate introduces warm acacia honey, soft cinnamon spice and oak tannin that frames rather than overpowers.
Finish
Clean, poised and lingering. Almond skin or gentle walnut bitterness rounds out the sweetness, a chalky mineral thread emerges, and the oak tannins remain refined. The high ABV gives presence but the texture is polished rather than aggressive.
