Santa Fe Spirits 5 Year Old (That Boutique-y Whisky Company)
Santa Fe Spirits
Tasting Notes
This remarkable American single malt whisky hails from Santa Fe Spirits in New Mexico, where a touch of mesquite-smoked malted barley lends a distinctive, smoky allure. Aged for five years, it masterfully blends the essence of Scotch whisky with a uniquely Southwestern twist. On the nose, it captivates with sweet notes of freshly pressed cider apples and warm winter spices, intertwined with hints of runny caramel. The palate delivers a powerful punch of peppery spice, woody undertones, zesty ginger, and liquorice, harmoniously balanced by the sweetness of baked apples and brittle toffee, with a subtle trail of fragrant woodsmoke lingering in the depths. The finish is a delightful symphony of peppery spice, charred oak, cedar, and anise, leaving a lasting impression on the senses.
