Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of spiced mocha, gingerbread, fudge, coconut, and banana pancakes with a round, bright, dry light-to-medium body and a smooth, relaxed finish that presents notes of caramel cremes and rum-raisin cake. A smooth-sipping American Single Malt Whiskey best served neat or in classic stirred cocktails.
