Stranahan's Blue Peak
American Single Malt — Colorado, USA

This is a new entry level whisky from Stranahan, which will be revamping its range in coming months. It’s a respectable introduction to the distillery. The nose combines cola cubes with light aromas of pineapple and tinned mandarin slices. Soft tinned fruit syrup flavors in the mouth and a gentle finish make the initial batch of this 4-5 year old blend a pleasant easy sipper. At a price that undercuts many entry-level Scotch whiskies in the US, this is yet more proof that American single malt has found a sustainable footing.

@Richard-ModernDrinking Agreed American single malts are coming on strong . This is good stuff
I really enjoy the exotic fruits all over the nose but without the intensity sherry-finishes can have. Great sipper I just picked up today, excited to write more about it.
