Name: Smooth Ambler Old Scout American Whiskey
Proof: 99 proof / 49.5% ABV
Age: NAS (no age statement) but assuming around 5 years
Year: 2016
Color: Light Amber
How I Drank It: Neat, in a Glencairn glass.
My Nose Noticed: Sweet corn and apple, with some faint caramel. Maybe even a whiff of banana. Very pleasant nose.
First Sip (Neat): Initially you are met with that terrific SAOS flavor, but that disappears quickly into a stinging burn on the tongue. Thin mouthfeel offers very little to chew on.
Burn/Finish: The burn remains on the tongue and never makes it into the throat. Its a real disappointment to me, someone who cant get enough of the SAOS bourbons and ryes. The finish hangs around like a burn on the tongue after biting a slice of pizza right out of the oven.
