Virginia Distillery Co. Blue Ridge Select Toasted Oak Barrel Finished, 46.5%

Initially, cinnamon is the star of the show, culminating in Golden Grahams and Cinnamon Life cereal on the nose. Soon enough, however, those spiced aromas are checked by strawberries, crème patisserie, vanilla pudding, strawberry Whoppers, and white chocolate. On the palate, hot cinnamon emerges, balanced here by Mexican hot chocolate and espresso-tinged notes. The finish ties it all together nicely: chocolate, coffee, and cinnamon spice combine in a most satisfying flavor trifecta.
