NV Eagle Rare 17 Year Old (45%)

A star of the annual lineup. Minty on the nose with soft spearmint and pine, plus earthy oak, subtle cherry, and sweet creamed corn. On the palate, its soft sweetness is balanced by pepper spice, with cherry pie, strawberry jam, and baking spice notes of brown sugar and cinnamon. A long, delicious finish with balanced dark-fruit sweetness, cocoa powder, coffee, and chocolate, checked by the earthy oak. (Release date: 10/24).
