Architect is the new blueprint for precision blending. The first build in this series combines our signature four grain mash bill with two styles of French oak staves. Working in collaboration with Tonnellerie Radoux of France, the market leader in oak barrel manufacturing and innovation, we selected each stave using their state-of-the-art OakScan® process to construct a truly memorable flavor profile. After all, the best architecture leaves no room for error. Aromas of sweet candied cream and floral with hints of crème brûlée. Sweet vanilla and viscous cream with some savory oak notes. Creamy sweetness transitions from the forward notes and into the body, herbal, floral and cream. Rich vanilla that leaves a long lingering finish with some heat.
