How to Enjoy
Begin with a small neat pour in a tulip-shaped tasting glass. Allow a moment for the aromas to develop, then compare with a few drops of water if you want to soften the strength or explore the sweeter notes.
A large ice cube is another option. For a simple pairing, try dark chocolate or lightly toasted nuts; keep the flavors restrained so the whiskey remains the focus.
