Tasted as Day 4 of The Saratoga Whiskey Club Advent Calendar 2022. Every day is a new adventure with a blind tasting, where we each try to guess the country of origin, the type and age of the whisk(e)y, and the ABV, followed by a reveal at 9PM. This is a single-barrel, store pick from Westport Whiskey & Wine (Louisville, KY USA). Photo courtesy of Charles Grabitzky.
