The oak influence becomes more pronounced, offering notes of toasted almonds and a subtle spiciness.

Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, gradually evolving from the lingering warmth of the whiskey to a final flourish of Chardonnay characteristics. A gentle hint of white pepper and oak spice intermingles with the lingering sweetness, leaving a nuanced and memorable aftertaste.
