Key West Trading Company Smuggler's Choice Bourbon Whiskey
90 proof
1 year
Bourbon
Green River Distilling (Owensboro, Kentucky)
Owensboro, KY
$35
Nose
Light and sweet, with caramel notes. Ethanol not overpowering. Very little spice detected.
Palate
Smooth with sweetness that transfers from nose. Not much burn. Nice texture with decent viscosity. Pepper and cinnamon on the back end with hints of licorice or anise, suggesting a small amount of rye in the mashbill.
Finish
Smooth without being overwhelming. Leaves decent legs on the glass for a lighter whiskey.
Respectable
A smooth, sweet everyday sipper that drinks older than its stated age—easy to sip on the patio but ultimately underwhelming and unremarkable.
