Undiscovered gem of a single malt.

"How does nobody know about this bottle?!? It's amazing!"

Chris (5/5)

Love!

"Absolutely love this bottle. One of my favorites to keep on the shelf and pull out on special occasions. Love the barely there smokiness. Such a good bottle, so happy I discovered it."

Sara (5/5)

Yummy

"Tonight’s dram takes me (virtually) to the deep south – to the first legally-distilled whiskey in Alabama since prohibition. Cracking the cork on the bottle fills the air with fresh ripe peaches – like standing in the orchard during picking season. It opens with peaches, cherries, and vanilla, followed by a caramel, oak wood, pecan wood, and light soft smoke, soon joined by honey, orange zest, and light cinnamon. These are the flavors we love in the deep south. The thick clingy legs and creamy mouthfeel deliver a long, smooth, sweet finish of vanilla ice cream with peaches, caramel sauce, and a sprinkling of cinnamon… in a word, yummy. Drink slow, drink long, drink a variety, drink often."
