Tasting Notes:
Nose: A bright and pleasing aroma with notes of cooked agave, caramel, oak, vanilla, baking spices, and hints of molasses and fruit, likely influenced by the rum finish.
Palate: Caramel and oak lead the way, followed by cooked agave, vanilla, black pepper, molasses, and a touch of cinnamon for complexity.
Finish: Smooth and easy-going with mild alcohol warmth, a little peppery kick, and a balanced conclusion.
