Smooth Ambler Old Scout 107 Single Barrel (John O's Pick)
107 proof 12 years (bourbon component), 6 years (American whiskey component) American Whiskey Smooth Ambler Greenbrier, WV $45 28% bourbon, 72% American whiskey
Nose

Butterscotch, caramel, deep vanilla bean, creamy notes, cereal notes reminiscent of plain Cheerios, some ethanol burn at 107 proof, minimal fruit

Palate

Buttery, butterscotch, hot buttered popcorn, nuttiness, viscous and creamy texture like pouring cream over Cheerios, intense heat that drinks hotter than its proof, super sweet with a big kick

Finish

Long and lingering, coats the mouth with sugar, memorable and persistent

Noteworthy
A buttery, butterscotch-forward blended whiskey with impressive heat and sweetness that offers exceptional value at $45 and stands out as a quality departure from standard bourbon offerings.
