Distiller Notes
On the nose, this whiskey shows caramel-butterscotch, vanilla, maple syrup and leather. On the palate, it offers notes of cinnamon-butter, vanilla, chocolate, warm caramel and spiced pear. The whiskey flows over the tongue like table cream and melted brown sugar, finishing with a hint of cayenne, rich tobacco, oak and aged leather.

This 100% malted barley spent two years in new charred oak and boasts an amber color, sweet caramel scent with a touch of coconut and juicy apple, and relatively dry flavors. What sets this whiskey apart is the remarkable deep cocoa and pronounced coffee finish and velvety, creamy mouthfeel, reminiscent of ice cream and root beer foam. An alcohol sting cuts through, but should temper over ice nicely.
A popular favorite among emerging niche categories of American Whiskies, American Single Malts now compete with the best from Scotland, Ireland and Japan. American Single Malt Whiskeys must be mashed, distilled and matured at a single distillery and made entirely from malted barley. There are well over one hundred distillers producing a variety of high-quality American Single Malt Whiskeys.
