Saint Cloud Straight Bourbon Single Barrel Cask Strength 7 Year 123.9 Proof

Color: A deep, lustrous mahogany hue, hinting at the extended maturation period and the rich, complex flavors awaiting discovery. Nose: Aromas unfold with sophistication—intense notes of caramel and vanilla, intertwined with nuances of ripe dark fruits. The oak presence is pronounced, imparting a subtle spiciness that adds depth to the aromatic profile. Palate: The first sip reveals an opulent and velvety palate, where toffee and dark chocolate take center stage. The cask strength, at an impressive 123.9 proof, amplifies the robust character, delivering a symphony of flavors. Undertones of seasoned oak and a trace of honeyed sweetness create a harmonious complexity that evolves on the tongue. Body and Mouthfeel: Full-bodied and enveloping, the bourbon coats the palate with a luxurious texture. The higher proof contributes to a warming sensation, intensifying the sensory experience without compromising the impeccable smoothness. Finish: The finish is a crescendo of warmth and lingering spices. Bold flavors of black pepper and a touch of cinnamon dance on the taste buds, leaving a lasting impression. Despite the high proof, the finish is remarkably balanced, underscoring the finesse achieved through seven years of patient aging.
