Color

Burnish

Nose

A sweet and syrupy nose. Powerful notes of tangerine citrus, marshmallow fluff, lush caramel, sweet herbal tea, molasses, and baking spice jump out of the glass.

Palate

Intense notes of rye spice, Cinnamon Red Hots, maple syrup, cloves, and toffee. The palate on WC4 is viscous and complex!

Finish

A smooth transition from the palate to the finish. Notes of caramel syrup, dark rich coffee, bitter chocolate, baking spice, dusty cinnamon, and a lingering rye spice. Wow, the finish goes for day
