Tasting notes:

The heart of eye glistens gently within the oak influences, as its
sharp edges are softened by 18 long years ageing. The nose on this whisky is floral and buoyant, with a surprising
level of energy for such an old American whiskey. Notes of oak and spice
strike with assorted confectionary and a gooey caramel layered over orange
peel and stewed vanilla apricot soothes the sparks of alcohol whipping the
senses with mild rye.
