Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of chocolate and honeyed stone fruit, marshmallow and vanilla, roasted coffee, and smoked roasted mixed nuts with a round, crisp, dry medium body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish that exhibits nuances of smoked almonds, pipe tobacco and tea leaves, kola nut and vanilla, and brown spices. A good example of American Single Malt with a rich, nutty aroma and flavor.
