Proof and Wood Vertigo (2021), 51.15%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2022 ● Reviewer: Shane English ● Category: Blended American Whiskey
This blend has a bold nose, opening with overripe berries and figs and a heavy dose of vanilla extract, plus musty leather, butterscotch, and marshmallow fluff. On first sip, it is more rounded, with cola and caramel adding sweetness to a fairly woody drink. Peppermint candies and sweet fennel echo in the background, though the cola sings the loudest.
