Tasting Notes

Uncut, unfiltered Beam at batch strength, and the most concentrated expression of the house peanut-and-oak character. Enormous and hot, with a finish that goes on well past where you expect it to stop.

Nose

charred oak, vanilla, roasted peanut, tobacco

Palate

thick caramel, peanut, cinnamon, oak char

Finish

enormous, hot, nutty and drying

Best enjoyed neat.
