Reviewed April 18, 2022On the nose, corn, peat, char, smoke, caramel and oak. Oak and peat dominate the palate, also smoke, pear cinnamon, vanilla, powdered sugar and char. Relatively hot for 95 proof, interesting for sure. -

Reviewed April 13, 2022 (edited June 21, 2022)Number three from Chattanooga Whiskey for me and this is the best one yet. The nose is light, smokey, sweet vanilla and dark brown sugar. I don't think I can adequately describe the flavor. It's surprisingly smooth with very little burn. Then comes the sweet vanilla and brown sugar again with some black pepper, and that light smoke! This one may very well get me into trouble!Imbibe Chattanooga-Wine Spirits Beer -

Reviewed April 1, 2022 (edited July 1, 2022)This is a unique blend that has a peaty scotch finish but not overly smokey. I love prayed scotches so this was in my wheelhouse. Chattanooga whiskey is killing it with their small batch series and I have loved everything they have put out.50.0 USD per BottleChattanooga Whiskey Experimental Distillery -

Reviewed March 1, 2022 (edited August 1, 2022)Aroma- big peat and honey. Some cracked black pepper in the back, slight baking spices. Man… as this opens up.. it gets super complex… the smoke is still there but now I’m getting tropical notes and tons of caramel and vanilla. Very interesting Taste- Wow… extremely thin mouthfeel but extremely long scotch finish. There was nothing upfront… mid palate is sweet fruit, salted caramel, baking spices, cinnamon then the finish is all Smokey scotch slight heat from the alcohol as well. Feels a bit hotter than 95 proof. Overall- Not a huge fan of peated scotch, but this is honestly fantastic. It’s got just enough sweetness from the oak and vanilla in the bourbon (mixed in with some spices) and just enough smoke on the finish to make this a terrific marriage. Very unique and absolutely worth seeking out. Great for those who are interested in Scotch and great for those who are looking for something new. The 95 proof is a bit interesting… the thinness was to be expected at 95, but the heat on the finish seems like it would be north of 100. -

Reviewed February 11, 2022 (edited September 15, 2022)smokey, peaty, sweet, briney. Has a perfect balance of a classic American whiskey/bourbon and the iconic Islay scotch stands out perfectly. Great whiskey for people who enjoy scotch and trying to get into Islay but don't want the full on experience yet.45.0 USD per BottleProvidence Wine and Spirits
