I love getting to try local craft whiskey. I really think it’s a true testament of gritty hard work, creativity, and passion. But, their prices seem more on par with well aged malts, which is what I can’t seem to fathom for young whiskies and bourbon. I got to try a sample of this thanks to a pour from @LeeEvolved. I’m especially thankful, because this one here isn’t simply available in NJ. You can clearly tell the passion that went into this—-it’s quality spirit, with strong aromas of fruit (specifically kiwi, stone fruits), followed by a crisp hint of beer and cereals. Ideally suited for a nice sunny hot Virginia day. It’ll be interesting to see where these guys go, as their whiskey becomes older and more refined. Bar, Bottle Purchase, or Avoid...I’d say bar for this one. I’d gladly buy a pour, but at $65, I can get a good young single malt or bourbon. Thanks Lee!
