Distilled in a column still and aged for around six years, the spirit spends its initial four years in traditional charred American white oak barrels. It is then elevated with hand-harvested Georgia white oak staves during the final months of aging, adding depth and complexity. Each bottle is non-chill-filtered and bottled at cask strength with an ABV of 58.5% (115 to 117 proof), ensuring the preservation of its robust flavors.\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nFiddler Georgia Heartwood delivers a symphony of flavors:\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inviting notes of vanilla, charred oak, and subtle grains.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate\u003c\/strong\u003e: A luxurious blend of caramel, maple syrup, graham crackers, and toasted marshmallow, punctuated by hints of dark baking chocolate and clove.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc pl-6\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sweet and warm with a lingering spice and layered complexity, leaving a memorable \"hug\".\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes It Special\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\nWhat sets Fiddler Georgia Heartwood apart is its innovative triple-oaking process using staves of North Georgia white oak.
