Tasted at Saratoga Whiskey Club Tasting # 125- Barrell Craft Spirits, hosted by Lindsay Gulics. According to Barrell Craft Spirits, this blend was technically challenging, as it brought together a variety of unique components. They strived to balance the tang of Southwestern mesquite smoke with the sweet and creamy maltiness of malted barley, and briny coastal peat with the warm vanilla character of toasted oak. The whiskey is a blend of 3.5- to 10-year old single malts.
