Stranahan Colorado Diamond Peak Whiskey 750ml
Description: | Nose: Mellow on the nose, which I found to be different than your typical American whiskey. Diamond Peak brings warm subtle scents to the table; hints of warm banana bread, cinnamon, spiced apples, and walnuts are present but very subtle. Additionally Im picking up a hint of creamed corn, which I also found to be present in the standard version of Stranahans, however much lighter in the Diamond Peak version. This is slightly odd, since this is the equivalent of a 4 year malted scotch made with no corn. Palate: The palate is sweet and light. Apple and oak are the first flavors to immediately pop out the moment I take a sip. Behind them I get hints of vanilla, honey, light toffee, and dried fruit. Its a really nice flavor profile and one that quickly coats your whole mouth. Youll want to hold this one in for just a few extra seconds before swallowing to make sure you notice all the subtle flavors the palate contains. Finish: The finish brings a nice mix of heat and light flavors. An initial coating of warmth fills your mouth along with mixed dried fruit and dried apple slices. Its a lighter flavor profile than preferred, but one that is still enjoyable. Region Description. \"Whiskey\" (with an e) usually refers to spirits distilled in Ireland and America. Whiskey picks up many of its flavors during the distillation process. This process leads to many unique varieties of whiskey. |
