Low Gap Whiskey (American Craft Whiskey Distillers), 42.7%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2011 ● Reviewer: Lew Bryson ● Category: White Whiskey
Distilled from “malted Bavarian hard wheat” on the still formerly used at Germain-Robin. Good pedigree; does it deliver? Bread/flour in the aroma, like a fresh bag of flour, with a fruity alcohol edge to it, the wheat tang I know from beer. In the mouth, it comes through as bread and crackers. It's somewhat hot, but it's a brandy/aromatic heat: vapor-producing. The finish pulls more grain in, finally. They're aging some of this; should be a great whiskey.
