Description

Tasting Panel Review
Rated 95
This Bordeaux-style blend is jam packed with notes of strawberry preserves, cassis and licorice. The texture is chewy and dense, complemented by hinys of jerky, blackberry and sandalwood. Each lot aged for 22 months in 80% French oak to yield a final blend that is full of character, wildly drinkable, and - dare we say - fun.

How To Serve

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
