Description

Smooth Ambler Contradiction Bourbon is a unique blend of straight bourbons from Smooth Ambler Spirits in West Virginia. It combines 27% of Smooth Ambler's own two-year-old wheated bourbon with 73% of a nine-year-old high-rye bourbon sourced from MGP in Indiana. This non-chill filtered bourbon is full-bodied, offering a complex profile that tastes like a four-grain bourbon.
