Michter's US*1 American Whiskey

Butterscotch. Too sweet for me.

Beautiful amber colour. Nose: Brown sugar, vanilla, cream, creme brulee, with subtle cinnamon and nutmeg Palate: Fantastically cool and smooth to start with a very creamy mouthfeel. Rich maple syrup and chocolate chip cookie flavours. Nice oaky tannins evolve next. Definitely lots going on here! Finish: Long. Wood smoke, lots of dried fruits here. More notes of brown sugar linger for a long time. This is a fantastic whisky and I can't emphasize enough how pleased I am that Michter's went against the "grain" and created this non-bourbon, non-rye, whisky. Absolutely fantastic and one of my all time favourites.

Vanilla and maybe brown sugar on the nose, spicy and good kick in the mouth even though it’s only 82 proof. Little bit of pepper on the back end. It lingers. Buttery and slightly maple-y. Smooth but you feel it.
