Tasting Notes

About:

An American Single Malt, distilled from 100% New York State barley before being aged three years and bottled at a cask strength of 62.6% ABV. It is priced at $135.
Appearance:
The orange-amber glow in this glass is mellow in consideration, supported by moderate legs and viscosity.
Nose:
The aromatics’ front end has a distinct caramel popcorn note, supported by wet grass and a nice gingerbread kick. There’s also Crhstimass pudding, apple sauce, oak, and molasses.
Palate:
On the very first sip, this considers bread pudding, reflecting gingerbread cookies and a bit of baking spice. Further along, there are tasting notes of mincemeat, brown sugar, caramel sauce, and some oak.
Finish:
The finish is warm and sweet/spicy, delivering a nice final punch that lingers for a moderate timeframe.
Comments:
Tenmile Little Rest Double Matured American Single Malt shows a bit on the young side at just three years, but what you get for that packs quite a wallop in flavors to consider. Price is a factor here, but grab a bottle if you have the cash.
