Blue Peak Solera Finish American Single Malt Whiskey

Category: American Single Malt Whiskey

Date Tasted: 6/22/2023

Country: USA

Alcohol: 43%

Gold color. Aromas and flavors of cherry cinnamon taffy, candied orange, red apple and green apple, and pine with a round, crisp, dry medium body and a tingling, compelling, medium-length finish that presents accents of baked and spiced red cherries, milk chocolate, and mild connecticut shade wrapper. A lovely American Single Malt with aromatic and flavor characteristics that should appeal to fans of Speyside Single Malts as well as Bourbon.
