  • Intro:

    Distilled by Woodinville Whiskey Company using their pot still, this exclusive release was a distillery only offering and featured a finish using Moscatel wine casks. Bottled at 50% ABV with no coloring or filtering.

  • Nose:

    Big syrupy fruits on the nose, cake batter, rainbow sherbert, apples, pears and lemon tart. Brown sugar, maple, toffee and tobacco. Ping pong experience between sweet fruit, dessert notes and spice.

  • Taste:

    Rich and syrupy on the palate. Sweet cream, toffee, praline. Then it dives into sweet wine, buttery tart and lovely raisin bread and tobacco. Cake batter on the back palate. Great oak quality, near perfect integration. Faint pepper on the back palate.

  • Finish:

    Long finish. Bold oak up first, followed by sweet cream, honey and almonds, lemon curd, raisin bread. Delightful complexity.

  • Overall:

    Unbelievable release from a relative newcomer on the block, when it comes to American Whiskey. 50% ABV is perfectly proofed for this bottling, the wine sees expert integration and it's bottled not a day too late or early.
