X-FACTOR

What a beauty! This Whiskey proves that American Single Malt on the rise as it ideally marries, malt, fruit, spice, and smoke.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, deep mahogany color. The aromatics are very intense, presenting scents of charred oak, baking spices, and cocoa with supporting notes of red plum, vanilla, and smoke. The palate is in full accord with the nose delivering a dried fruits-driven core with flavors of apricot stone, ginger biscuits, red currant, and butterscotch. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and ideally balanced with an opulent texture.
