Description
West Virginia Rye, Port Wine Soul
Smooth Ambler Old Scout Rye Port is a West Virginia craft rye whiskey that takes the bold, spicy character of aged rye and gives it a luxurious finishing period in port wine casks. The result is a whiskey of beautiful contrast — the peppery, grain-forward intensity of a well-aged rye meeting the rich sweetness of dark berry fruit and port wine in a combination that is both unexpected and deeply satisfying. A whiskey that proves West Virginia has something serious to say in the American craft spirits conversation.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Rich and inviting — rye spice and caramel with a distinctive port wine sweetness of dark cherry, dried plum, and a warm vanilla depth
- Palate: Full and layered — dark berry fruit, toffee, and a warming rye spice with a velvety port-influenced richness and a satisfying interplay between grain and wine cask
- Finish: Long and warming with lingering dark fruit, spice, and a clean, sweet port fade
