Tuthilltown Hudson Whiskey NY Back Room Deal 750ml
WA90
$57.99 USD
We send our ex-bourbon barrels across the Atlantic where they’re used to age peated whiskey, then emptied and returned to our distillery where we fill them up again with straight rye whiskey. There’s nothing sinister about it, it’s just how the world works. A bit of smoke, a bit of spice. Good enough to seal the deal. Nose: There’s a bit of smoke in the air, and a soft aroma of vanilla, apricot, and brown sugar. - Palate: Take a sip, and it’s bright and fruity with black pepper and mint, rye spice mingling perfectly with smokey peat notes. - Finish: That peat lasts long on the finish, with just a little bit of sweetness.

"Though reticent at first, the nose opens up to honey, caramel, and some pleasant mustiness, followed by a late wave of sweet and savory spices. There’s an undercurrent of smoke, too, which transfers smoothly onto the palate, though it’s overpowered by just-burnt cinnamon sugar toast and slightly charred sugar cookie. Fig Newton and raisin are also here in spades, creating a dark, fruity experience. The finish is short and hot, and it delivers a smooth hit of menthol."
