In the Glass
Appearance
Brilliant, crystal clear.
Aromatics
The nose is filled with the scents of sweet talc and corn Whiskey supported by notes of citrus redolent of limeade and lime zest.
Flavor
The palate echoes the nose delivering a thick and sweet core with copious amounts of sweet lime and candy sugar.
Intensity & Texture
Despite the high proof, this spirit is rather soft and pleasant on the palate with no significant sense of alcohol heat.

Cool Factor
The category of unaged Whiskey is one that does not inspire classic Whiskey fans nor consumers of flavored Vodkas.

Value Grade
At over $30 a bottle the Whiskey lover has many options.

Analysis
This is a unique product for which there is undoubtably an audience. The over-proof factor will be a hit for those looking to mix it while keeping alcohol potency. The sweet citrus flavors were unexpected in a Moonshine (White Dog) but this will be a plus those looking for soft, approachable spirits.

How to Enjoy
The bright citrus flavors will show through when mixed with soda while the mixer combinations are nearly endless.
