NEAT NOSE - So much honey on the nose with an unmistakable malt note, so much so that it reminds me of an unpeated scotch. I also get some cinnamon and vanilla. Compared to a scotch however, the nose is more rich, warm, and vibrant. PALATE - Sweet, thick honey. The mouthfeel is thick and oily. I also get some cinnamon and vanilla on the palate with the cinnamon being very faint. FINISH - Long and Lingering BUY? - Absolutely. This is a very unique pour that may turn your attention to American Single Malts. BUY AGAIN?? I’d buy again if I was looking for this flavor profile. Again, it’s very unique. Also, they have Single Barrel Cask Strength bottles of this and I just got one. So maybe look out for those as well. I can’t wait to try mine.

Decent. A little hint of some spice.

Nose was pleasant, vanilla, cinnamon, and the palate had cherry vanilla cinnamon vibes. Overall solid but nothing standing out. Stanahan’s offerings are unique and worth trying in that they straddle this line between bourob and scotch. Though a single malt, it has so many bourbon like qualities. I could warm up to this distillery with time, just was caught of guard with the unique take on whisky, but unique kn a good way and i look forward to trying some offerings from them in the future. Tour at the distillery was absolutely worth it! And a great location!

Had a hard time warming up to this one but it eventually won me over. Strong notes of honey, vanilla, and cloves on the palate. A great intro to American single malts.
