Proof and Wood The Stranger Polish Whiskey (750 ml)

Description

At Proof & Wood Ventures, Inc., we invest in and develop spirits brands, and age our own spirits. Our core business is sourcing and bottling fine American whiskies, but we also import other high-quality spirits from around the world that were not available in the US previously. Founder Dave Schmier is delighted to be able to create both cocktail-friendly bottlings for value-focused bartenders and high-end collectors’ editions for connoisseurs.

Tasting Notes: 

• Nose: Gentle, clean rye flavor. Warm underlying spices. Bready, rye crust scent and white grape sweetness on the back. 
• Palate: Great rye crust, caraway, and dark caramel. Quite savory in some ways with a buttery quality. Mouthfeel is thin-to-medium, the sweet and savory caraway seed baked and rested. Herbal and floral rye sticks on the tongue with a mild coating on the entire palate.
• Finish: Sweeter and fruitier than the nose or palate, introducing apricot jam and toasted nutmeg.
