In some ways it's everything you'd expect from a rum cask finish. banana and tropical fruit notes meet oak on the nose with caramel and vanilla hiding
behind the fruit. this continues onto the palate with burnt sugar, cacao, and smoky notes. extremely well balanced pour that does not remotely drink like a 121.9 proof.

The mouthfeel is moderately thick which is a good thing because i?ve had some of these private release whiskies that are still very thin. the spicy heat is immediate on your tongue and almost overwhelming. the 128 proof definitely reveals itself here. there are plenty of flavors to find if you can look past the heat such as brown sugar and molasses.
This nose is so sweet right off the bat. notes of funnel cake, brown sugar and shortbread cookies all highlight this fact. i pick up on some really fun fruit scents too like dried mango slices and raisins. there is the aroma of warm pancake syrup too followed by a nice hint of vanilla bean. the nose is somewhat simple but extremely welcoming.
Dried mango and pineapple carries over from the nose and palate all the way to finish. lingering notes of liquid brown sugar, brown butter and spices like cardamom and cinnamon are pleasant to find and really round out every sip.
