Tasting Notes

Nose

This American Single Malt is decidedly fruity without being overwhelming or sweet. There are notes of red table grapes, honeydew melon, and pineapple skins. On the savory side, I picked up notes of fresh corn and sliced bread. There is a hint of vanilla pods. Im surprised this isnt more impacted by the finishing casks, but if subtly was the goal, mission accomplished.

Palate

On the palate, things get a touch more interesting. Theres hints of smoldering campfire, charcoal, and French sea salt. I appreciate that they state outright in their press release that this is unpeated, as the smokiness fooled me. The tannins are grippy and the finish is fruity, showing notes of red raspberries, cantaloupe, and walnut skins.

Finish

Comments: Latest On The Whiskey Wash Aged for an undisclosed amount of time in new American oak, further aged in a mix of finishing casks, and married as a blend for eight weeks; 49.5% ABV; mash bill: 100% malted barley; SRP $64
