SMOOTH AMBLER Old Scout 6yr Astor Pick 99 Proof 2012 Single Barrel Whiskey

Smooth Ambler Spirits, nestled in the mountains of West Virginia, has built a devoted following for its Old Scout series — single barrel selections that showcase the best of American whiskey craftsmanship. This Astor Wines exclusive pick, a 6-year-old bottled at 99 proof from a 2012 barrel, is a prime example of what careful barrel selection can achieve. Bold and expressive at cask strength, the nose opens with rich caramel, toasted oak, and dried cherry. The palate is full and warming — layers of vanilla, dark fruit, and baking spice lead to a long, satisfying finish with a gentle heat that rewards the patient sipper.
