How We Feel About the Spirit
For us, this bottle is personal. Cancer has hit close to home, and when we saw this release, we knew it wasn’t just another addition to our bar—it was a way to raise a glass in solidarity, remembrance, and hope.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: A pop of sweet cream and brown sugar, warm and inviting.
Palate: Rich, balanced, bold. Baking spice, honey, toffee, and brûlée unfold with complexity.
Finish: Bold yet harmonious, lingering with spice and sweetness that remind you of strength and comfort.
Reflections
At 114.6 proof, this whiskey doesn’t shy away from intensity, but its balance makes it approachable. The sweetness offers comfort, the spice speaks to resilience, and the bold finish feels like a fitting metaphor for the fight against cancer—complex, enduring, and unforgettable.
This bottle isn’t just about flavor; it’s about community and cause. Every pour is a reminder that whiskey can be more than a drink—it can be a tribute, a rallying cry, and a way to honor those whose stories are woven into our lives.
