Churning out complexity through time and heat. The solo grain, Maris Otter, brims the mash tun for a long soak. A portion of the first runnings were boiled and reduced, triggering the Maillard reaction; through which, the vigorous heating of sugars adds a deeper color and flavor. The boil is then continued to further increase said reaction. A prolonged nap of 38 months in bourbon barrels and conditioning on maple syrup, wildflower honey, and walnuts finishes off this luxurious prize. Indulge in Prodigality’s warm embrace with notes of burnt sugar, sweet prune, oak, leather and a candied, earthy nuttiness

Geur en smaak werkelijk fantastisch. Als een toetje. Versgebrande pecannoten met caramel, maple en honing. Dik, zoet, maar de zoetigheid enigszins in toom. De bourbon & de booze hangt er goed in op een prettige warmende manier. Decadente sipper. Heerlijk.
