Smooth Ambler Old Scout American Whiskey

Smooth Ambler Old Scout American Whiskey is a distinctive blend that showcases the art of whiskey curation. Crafted by Smooth Ambler Spirits in West Virginia, this expression combines two unique whiskeys: a 9-year-old high-rye bourbon (36% rye) sourced from MGP in Indiana and a 5-year-old Tennessee-distilled whiskey made from a bourbon mash, aged in re-charred used barrels. The result is a harmonious marriage of flavors that offers a fresh take on traditional American whiskey. 

Nose: Inviting aromas of sweet butterscotch, vanilla, and subtle floral notes, complemented by hints of cherry pipe tobacco and leather.

Palate: A rich and smooth mouthfeel with flavors of toasted graham cracker, creamy corn, and a touch of mint, leading to a balanced sweetness.

Finish: Lingering notes of baking spices and toasted wood, leaving a warm and satisfying conclusion.

Grilled Meats: The whiskey's bold character complements the smoky flavors of grilled steaks or barbecued ribs.

Aged Cheeses: Pairs well with sharp cheddar or gouda, enhancing the creamy and nutty profiles.

Dark Chocolate Desserts: The sweetness and slight bitterness of dark chocolate harmonize with the whiskey's complex profile.
