Stolen American Whiskey 11 Year

Smooth, Smokey and very drinkable

Interesting whiskey, smokey, sweet, minty nose and palate, spicy medium finish

Vital Stats: 92 proof. 46 percent alcohol by volume in a 750 milliliter bottle. Corn whiskey aged for roughly 11 years in used barrels at MGPI in Indiana and then finished with a second aging in toasted barrels for about 28 days. Appearance: Burnt copper, chestnut. Nose: My first whiff, I get hints of toffee, chocolate and a bit of sour oak. As I sat with it, I detected more of an element of dried dark fruit. The nose bouquet reminds me of a complex wine. Palate: At first sip, I’m hit with a toasted oaky taste that softens into a sweet, syrupy molasses flavor. The whiskey has the hints of smokiness people have come to expect from Stolen Spirits, but more delicate than you might expect. The whiskey has a buttery, creamy texture, leaving a nice coating in your mouth. Well balanced with a smooth finish, spices like nutmeg and a slight vanilla flavor lingers at the end.

Current go to for Old Fashions. The hint of vanilla mixes well for a well balanced Old Fashion that's sweet as much as it is deadly.

If you don't like finishes or whiskey that's stave finished don't buy this. If you do continue reading. You may like this. N:Sweet, smoky (think wood smoke not peat smoke) P: still sweet but the toasted oak notes start to pull forward. The marshmallow mention on the bottle tag begins to make sense. For me I picture sitting at a campfire either watching them melt into the flames or making smores. F: Sweet burnt wood, pit BBQ, smooth but does have spicy burn Well balanced overall. Rating reflects versatility and less the quality. As stated this is not a purists whiskey at all but a treat for the adventurer. Would pair with BBQ, hiking and a beautiful campfire in the mountains.
