Nose:  A smooth and inviting aroma of buttery oak and brown sugar greets you first, evolving into notes of candied citrus, flambéed banana, and hints of dark chocolate that combine fruitiness with a gentle pastry-like sweetness.  

Palate:  The palate is generous and silky, showing soft, stewed stone fruit such as apricot alongside cooked fruit and crème brûlée-style richness with touches of vanilla and caramel that balance the grassy cane profile. 

Finish:  The finish is warm and pleasant, with the influence of the bourbon casks bringing a slightly crunchy popcorn-like note and subtle oak tannins that linger with a gentle sweetness.
