Nose (Aroma):
The first olfactory engagement unveils a medley of dark fruits and vanilla, punctuated by caramelized oak and a touch of spice. This is enveloped by an almost palpable layer of warm cornbread, a nod to its predominant mash bill.
Palate (Taste):
Upon entry, Old Tub inundates the taste buds with robust flavors of charred oak and sweet corn. Following this, there is a surge of caramel and vanilla sweetness, balanced meticulously by a burst of peppery spice and a tinge of dark chocolate. The unfiltered essence lends a dense, almost chewy texture to the experience.
Finish:
Long and pleasantly warming, the finish leaves behind an enduring spicy kick and the comforting richness of corn. As it fades away, a retrospective note of dried fruit and tobacco lends a surprising complexity.
