Detailed Description
Rock Town is Arkansas’ first legal distillery since prohibition. Arkansas’s Rock Town Distillery produces this Hickory-Smoked Whiskey, a wheat whiskey with a 91% winter wheat and a 9% malted barley mashbill. They cold smoke the wheat in their own hickory smokers prior to the milling process. The whiskey is then aged in a combination of 15-gallon and 25-gallon ex-bourbon barrels and is bottled and 90 proof.
Rock Town Hickory Smoked Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: The hickory comes through, offering a delicate sweet smokiness. This is joined by a hint of coffee and dried apricots.
Palate: Multi-dimensional: sweet and smoky with vanilla, honey, nutmeg and apricots.
Finish: Medium to long with the sweet nutmeg and vanilla the last to dissipate.
