TWB Tasting Notes:
Nose: The nose opens with an inviting blend of dried fruits such as raisins and sultanas, underpinned by a deep toffee sweetness. As it develops, notes of creamy vanilla emerge, interwoven with subtle hints of cinnamon and nutmeg from the European oak sherry casks. A delicate wisp of oak spice and a touch of honey from the Bourbon barrels round out the aromatic profile.
Palate: Smooth and velvety, the initial sip brings forth a harmonious fusion of sweet and spicy flavors. The richness of sherry influence shines through with notes of dark chocolate, dried figs, and a hint of spiced orange peel. The American oak adds layers of creamy vanilla and caramel. As the whisky opens up, a gentle spiciness from the oak integrates seamlessly, adding depth and complexity without overpowering the sweeter elements.
Finish: Long and satisfying, the finish is a testament to the intricate aging process. It begins with a lingering sweetness, reminiscent of honey and dried fruits, slowly transitioning into a warm, spicy conclusion with subtle oak tannins and a touch of nutmeg. The final impression is one of balanced richness, leaving a lasting warmth and a desire for another sip.
