Bear Fight American Single Malt Whiskey

Description

Aroma

Initial Impression 

The initial wave of aroma might surprise you with its sweetness. Imagine walking into a bakery filled with the warm scent of freshly baked pecan pie. Hints of red apple skin add a touch of freshness, while a delicate floral note, like honeysuckle blooming in the summer sun, ties everything together.

Palate

First Sip

The sweetness carries over to the palate, but it’s not overpowering. Think of candied dates bursting with concentrated sugary flavor, balanced by the earthy richness of dried figs. Black currants, with their tart and slightly jammy character, peek through, adding complexity.

Midpalate

As the whiskey lingers on your tongue, a wave of malty character emerges. Imagine freshly baked bread with a hint of nuttiness, like the subtle toastiness of barley. This grainy element provides a foundation for the other flavors to dance on.

Finish

The finish is where the Bear Fight reveals its American roots. A gentle wave of smoky peat washes over the palate, reminiscent of Islay single malts. This smokiness isn’t overpowering, but it adds a pleasant intrigue and lingers for a pleasant amount of time. It’s like a campfire ember glowing warmly in the distance.
