Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of green apple Skittles and caramel apple lollipop with a syrupy, tangy, fruity medium body and a graceful, compelling, medium-long finish with shades of green apple Jolly Rancher and green apple laffy taffy. How about them apples? Green apple caramel candies in your glass.

Flavored whiskeys are distilled alcoholic beverages produced form grain (rye, corn, barley) that have had additional flavoring included. These flavors cover a wide array from honey to apple to cinnamon. Most of these flavored whiskies are from North America, although there are a few from Europe.

While these can be enjoyed over ice, most are used mixed with soda or tonic or else in a hot toddy.
