A savory hint of BBQ honeydew and grilled melon adds depth — ripe fruit kissed by smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePalate: A burst of baking spice — allspice and anise leading — gives way to a wave of confectioner’s sugar. Oily and coating, it rolls across the tongue with torched orchard fruit and caramelized richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinish: Long and creamy, the finish lingers with a soft, lactose-like smoothness. Tobacco, leather, and a final flicker of spice rise at the end, leaving behind structure and resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-item__dropdown accordion-item__dropdown--open\" role=\"region\" id=\"dropdown-block-2764eb3f14f2599e7403-1\" aria-labelledby=\"button-block-2764eb3f14f2599e7403-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\n            accordion-item__description\n            \n            \n            \n          \"\u003e\n\u003cul data-rte-list=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e7.5 Years\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e111.5 Proof\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e60% Corn, 36% Rye, 4% Malted Barley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eOriginally distilled in Indiana, Finished in Red and White Port Wine Casks, Blended and Bottled in Kentucky\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-icon-container\" data-is-open=\"false\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"\n          accordion-item__title-wrapper\n          \n          \n          \n        \" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"3\" data-sqsp-accordion-block-item-title=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-item__dropdown accordion-item__dropdown--open\" role=\"region\" id=\"dropdown-block-1fccdf151ad0d318c4d1-0\" aria-labelledby=\"button-block-1fccdf151ad0d318c4d1-0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\n            accordion-item__description\n            \n            \n            \n          \" data-sqsp-accordion-block-item-description=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eThey were never meant to meet, two distinct forces shaped in separate casks.
