80% Black Dirt grown corn
12% Malted Barley

NOSE: A light popcorn or cereal aroma along with the traditional oak and some sweet vanilla. It is a very subtle aroma and you must take your time to get much of anything on the nose
PALATE: It is not thick or syrupy and does not coat the mouth in any way, but does taste surprisingly good. It isn’t watery, but it is just a bit thin. The taste is all at the back of the mouth until about the third or fourth wave of flavor finally makes it to the front as it continues to linger.
FINISH: Oak, Vanilla, Caramel, Spiciness
