New England Distilling Tidewalker, 44%

York Peppermint Patties, Mexican hot chocolate, and nutmeg open this minty whiskey. With time, tobacco and banana surface alongside fresh-cut lumber. The palate is full-bodied and layered, with the mint dialed back while milk chocolate, candied pecans, and a touch of tannic oak emerge. The finish lasts long with vanilla, cocoa powder, and faint berry sweetness, all kissed by cooling mint.
