Copper Fox American Single Malt
COPPER FOX DISTILLERY
Peggy
Nose: Soft ginger and honey with bread. Simple cane syrup with golden raisin and light brown sugar. Butterscotch and shortbread with pear.
Palate: A delicate smoky flavor that wraps the tongue and arouses the spice. Crushed almonds and sugar cookie with golden raisin appearing.
Finish: Lovely finish that is approachable and dry. Some soft sweet gingerbread too.
Comments: Only a wee splash of water for this nice whiskey.

Susan
Nose: Mildly smoky with malt, sweet oak, very subtle fruit like berry juice. Could easily be taken for a lightbodied Scotch.
Palate: Light, savory smoked kippers, but in a good way. There’s vanilla, cinnamon and some more berries.
Finish: Smoke and berries dry and change into iodine and light oak. Again, Scotch-like.
Comments: Is this a sip to entice Scotch drinkers to American whiskey? Or perhaps to ease American Bourbon drinkers into Scotch? 8.0
