Hagger
Dried fruits, dark and sweet caramel, vanilla, coconut, cocoa, a slight roast and berries shape aroma and taste. The bulk of the blend matures in bourbon barrels, the rest in other spirit barrels. Each release is a dated blend of selected barrel-aged barley wines, and a 2019 batch was also bottle-aged for nearly five years.
