Redwood Empire Rocket Top 5 year old Bottled in Bond (Batch 003), 50%

From Gratton Distilling’s Redwood Empire range, Rocket Top is named for a 365-foot tall redwood tree in California’s North Coast forest. Balanced sweetness on the nose, lots of cherries, and subtle herbs and spice. Soft on the palate, with red berries, balanced pepper spice, and bitter coffee. A flavorful, mid-length finish offers tasty flavors of strawberry shortcake and cherry pie. This one is well made and not afraid to be flavor-forward.
