overall

For this limited edition batch, co-founders Michael Lahalih and John Pals maintained the developed sweetness found in The Jokester, the whiskey's younger 6 year old counterpart. More oak influence provides balance along with an additional 5 proof points which may contribute to its deeper spice. Those seeking additional balance between oak and sweet notes will appreciate this 12 year old bourbon.
