Gold color. Aromas and flavors of mesquite, strawberry powder or raspberry nougat, vanilla and caramel malt, and matcha with a velvety, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, engaging, medium-length finish imparting notes of smoked caramel on sourdough, black pepper on freshly baked wheat bread, cashew butter, and green tea. A really beautiful American Single Malt with sweet grain, barrel spice, and a playful wisp of smoke.
