22oz (thx, Brian S.!) at Matt's amenity room. Appearance: murky brown with a beige head. Aroma: whiskey, oak, creamy, some fruity notes. Taste: whoa, that's boozy, lots of toffee and whiskey, fruity notes, tannins like from cherry stones. Overall: interesting.

2017 vintage. 22 oz. bottle, pours a deep dark rusted red with a small beige head. Aroma reveals an old, slightly smoky, whiskey barrel character upfront, with dry toasted bready malt and a little caramel. Flavour is loaded with intense whiskey barrels, light-to-moderate smoke, sherry-like oxidation, and toasted bready caramel. That's an insane barrel character—very boozy as well. The oxidation is pleasant—no cardboard here. Love that barrel character but it is overly boozy. Lovely slow sipper.
