The initial flavors include a delicate sweetness of charred oak, roasted nuts, and leather, along with undertones of vanilla, nutmeg, and a hint of pepper. The mid palate features a perfect balance of peppery spice and earthiness, complemented by a rich sweetness and oakiness. The finish is equally satisfying, with a rich combination of flavors expertly crafted to replicate and honor John Wayne's preferred tasting notes from 1962, using his personal recipe and collection. This unique blend is made primarily of American corn, rye, and barley, and is distilled and aged in the traditional Kentucky style in heavily charred, handcrafted American Oak barrels for a minimum of 5 years. ABV: 44.0%
