After allowing the whisky to breathe for 15 minutes, a pronounced aroma of hickory-smoked ribs emerges, enriched by a robust orange note.

Palate: The smokiness continues, leading the way to a robust blend of cigars, wood, nuts, and the distinctive tang of blood orange, intertwined with the richness of dark chocolate.
-
Finish: Experience a lingering, smoky finish that seamlessly transitions into spices, wood, blood orange, nuts, and chocolate, leaving an indelible mark on the palate.
