The whiskey offers the notes from Jos. A. Magnus’ nine- to 18-year blended bourbon, along with subtle, aged cognac and grape juice aromas derived from the casks, with the fruitiness of prune, dried apricot and golden raisins, orange blossom honey, marzipan, cocoa nibs, toasted coconut shavings, toffee and coffee cake. Here, WD’s Luke Heinsohn and Wunderman’s Mallory McCarty.
