Age: 4 years

Proof: 143 proof

Mashbill: 100% Malted bloody butcher corn

Tasting Notes: The nose is rich in sweetness with a hint of savoriness to boot – thick caramel sauce, spiced cola, with date and raisin fruitiness and a pinch of candied bacon jam.

The palate is incredibly viscous, toasty like their toasted Fiddlers from last year with heavy chocolate ganache, clinging dried fruits, and lots of charred citrus on the palate.

The finish is the best part, flat cola sweetnessas more of the savoriness draws out along with long, toasted oak and continually developing petrichor.
