🥃 Features

• Exterior Appearance: Unusually vibrant, thanks to aging in freshly charred American oak barrels, which give the whiskey a distinctive character and complexity.
• Body: The texture is creamy and enveloping, making for a unique tasting experience.
• Nose: The aroma is fresh, lively and floral, with notes of fresh herbs, ripe orchard fruits, and a subtle trace of vanilla, against a delicate background of balsa wood.
