After 14 years in bourbon casks, Hawk’s Rock Distillery’s double-distilled debut is a mar- riage of muscat, PX, rum, and sauternes finishing. Ripe peach, apricot tarte tatin, brioche, persimmon, grapefruit peels, mealy apples, and dense floral aromas. Intense concentrated fruitiness with vanilla, apricot, papaya, candy hearts, and green apple, followed by chocolate, chicory coffee, walnuts, and a sweet finish of peach pastries, pineapple cubes, and dried stone fruits. A garden of delights
