This New Era combo pairs two distinct ages—12 and 18 years—in a single pack to showcase layered development and contrast across maturity.
Description
The set presents two complementary expressions that highlight how age alters wood interaction, spice, and sweetness. Designed as a limited-release, it provides a ready-made tasting comparison for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Both bottles are crafted to be sipped and studied, offering a small snapshot of an evolving flavor story between younger and older barrels.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Caramel and oak initially, with secondary notes of spice and dried fruit emerging as the pour opens.
- Palate: Layered caramel and warm spice; the older expression leans deeper into oak and complexity while the younger offers livelier spice.
- Finish: Balanced, with lingering oak and a gentle baking-spice warmth.
Why This Bottle Stands Out
A limited-release duo that lets you compare age-driven nuance side-by-side—great for tasting education, gifting, or adding depth to a curated shelf.
