X-FACTOR

The judges loved the complexity and balance found in this spirit — American Single Malts are on the rise.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, medium mahogany color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of charred oak, red cherry, and baking spices with supporting notes of apricot, baked apple, orange peel, and cereal. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering a malted barley-driven core with flavors of allspice, nutmeg, and roasted nuts. The finish is long and lingering. Full-bodied and impeccably balanced with a silky texture.
