Tasting Notes

•  Nose
• Dried raspberries and tart cherries emerge first, backed by nutmeg, cinnamon bark and a whisper of tobacco leaf. The oak influence is soft but present.  
• Palate
  Brown butter, rich caramel and vanilla lead in; followed by cherry cola, toasted honey graham, orange oil, cookie dough and subtle tobacco. Weighty and textured.  
• Finish
  Long and warming. Robust oak remains front-and-center, while sweet fruit and gentle spice linger. This isn’t subtle it invites another sip.  

 Serving Suggestions

• Neat  Let it sit in the glass for a minute to open up the layers of fruit and oak.
• Large Ice Cube  Softens the proof slightly, allowing the caramel and vanilla to bloom while preserving structure.
• Signature Cocktail  “Batch Three Old Fashioned”
  • 2 oz Rare Character Batch No.03
  • ½ tsp demerara syrup
  • 2 dashes aromatic bitters
  Stir with ice, strain over a large cube in a rocks glass, garnish with an orange twist.
