Tasting Notes:

Dark brownish-amber color. The nose is slightly spicy port. Extremely bold on the palate. There is a rich layer of oaky bourbon spice. The port shows up midway through the palate and adds a nice layer of sweetness and a bit of a nutty character. Finishes long and spicy with a nice mellow port character.
