Description

A single barrel straight rye whiskey from Smooth Ambler's Old Scout range, this 12 year old was bottled in 2020 at 55.9% ABV after maturation in charred American oak. Extended ageing brings depth and structure to the classic rye profile, with bold spice, toasted oak and caramel sweetness balanced by notes of pepper, vanilla and dry grain. Bottled at high strength, it delivers a rich, full-bodied character typical of well-matured American rye whiskey. Smooth Ambler's Old Scout line is known for sourcing high-quality whiskies, with this particular rye originating from Indiana.
