An 8 year old wheated bourbon, finished 27 months in Frapin cognac casks. A dark, opulent nose: cocoa, crushed sweet cherry, and vanilla custard, laced with cinnamon and fired with the alcohol heat. My, my…it's even enjoyable at full proof, and delivers the sweet promise on a solid bed of oak and heat. Heaven Hill's getting good at these finishes. Expensive, but impressive.
