Tasted as Day 22 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 single-cask whiskey is a Private Barrel (Barrel # 6634306) selected by Bayway World of Liquor (Elizabeth, NJ). Photo courtesy of Charles Grabitzky.
