American Single Malt
Frey Ranch // Nevada, USA
RARE
This limited edition bottling is the first in Frey Ranch's Smoked Grain Series. Like all other whiskeys from the brand, the grains (100% barley) were grown, harvested, milled and distilled on the Frey Ranch Farm, but it was also smoked in a smoker fashioned by co-founder/farmer Colby Frey and Master Distiller Russell Wedlake.
Colby made his own peat from decomposed plant matter from the farm. (SRP $59 - 375ml).

Tasting Notes
"Wafts of fireplace smoke lead on the nose, along with cigar wrapper, baker's chocolate, and wild mint. The palate is dry and earthy, offering black pepper, oak, barrel char, sour cherries, and hay, and is easy sipping despite the proof. The lengthy finish turns up the phenolics with tire rubber and ash, and also offers vanilla extract and cedar wood shavings."
