Original American Single Malt Whiskey

Category: American Single Malt Whiskey

Date Tasted: 7/7/2022

Country: USA

Alcohol: 47%

Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of multi grain toast, dried red fruit compote, and milk chocolate with a round, vibrant, dry medium-to-full body and a tingling, subtle, medium-long finish with notes of candied dates and creme fraiche on wheat crackers, grilled orange, and earl grey tea. A fine sipping Single Malt worthy of space in your glass, no matter where it was distilled and aged.
