Distiller Notes
After spending years aging in first-fill ex-bourbon casks, this American Single Malt is finished in traditional tawny port casks sourced from premium Portuguese bodegas, along with port style wine casks sourced in Virginia. Scents of honeycomb, walnuts, and gingerbread are met with a burst of bright lemon, red berries, soft smoke, and cocoa on the palate.
Capturing a broad range in one category, American Whiskey refers to any spirit made in America by distilling a mash of fermented grains—typically corn, wheat, rye or barley. American Whiskey must be distilled to no more than 95% alcohol and bottled at 40% or higher. In order to be labeled a straight Whiskey, it also must be aged in white oak barrels for a minimum of two years and not contain any added colors or flavors.
