Refill Bourbon Hogshead/ Code: PRV0708/ DMG7191

Dist: Oct 1999 Btl: June 2011/ Tasted: June 2011

A pleasant, easy going nose of sugar coated herbal honey and white flowers along with some spicy oak and a touch of high toned cereal. The palate begins quite sugary, followed by sweet malt and a hint of oat biscuit. Relatively straightforward but pleasant with a touch of herbal honey and citrus. The alcohol bites and cleanses leaving a lemony finish.
