We would like to thank 10th Street Distillery and Feature M for sending us a sample to review.

What the Distillery Says

Our Peated Single Malt has been inspired by classic Scottish production methods and fueled by American innovation. We source peated barley from Scotland, use mineral rich water from Sierra snowmelt, and age in bourbon barrels for a whisky that is smoky, fruity, and well rounded.
TASTING NOTES
Nose: Citrus, with a peat smoke essence
Color: Light golden
Palate: Creamy full flavors of vanilla and dark red apple peels, turning into rounded peat flavors. A delicate balance of fruity and smoky notes.
Finish: Full bodied, buttery, with a lingering peaty finish

What Gary Says

Nose:  Peat smoke, hint of green oak, subtle tangerines and apricots.
Palate:  Vanilla, caramel, peat, apple crumble without any cinnamon, slight pepper spice.
Finish:  Moderate in length with peat, apples and pepper.
Comments:  This is a nicely done peated American single malt. Unique and interesting. Again, I’m surprised at it’s youth as the bottle states “whisky stored for one year in reused cooperage” (oddly phrased, but more direct than “at least 1 year”). Another pretty young whisky that surprises me as being worth drinking.

Rating: Stands Out
