Doc Schmickle's Small Batch Root Beer Whiskey by Minglewood Distilling
70 proof NAS Flavored Whiskey Minglewood Distilling Wooster, OH
Nose

Strong root beer character; reminiscent of A&W root beer; immediately recognizable root beer barrel candy aroma.

Palate

Authentic root beer flavor that dominates but doesn't completely overwhelm the underlying whiskey; creamy root beer quality; like sucking on a root beer barrel hard candy on the finish; well-balanced between flavoring and whiskey base; doesn't have aggressive sweetness smack.

Finish

Lingering root beer barrel candy character; clean finish with the candy flavor persisting; doesn't fade away quickly.

Noteworthy
A cleverly executed flavored whiskey that nails the root beer barrel candy profile while maintaining whiskey character and avoiding excessive sweetness.
