Smooth Ambler Contradiction Bourbon hails from West Virginia, blending sourced straight bourbon with Smooth Ambler's own pot-distilled high-rye bourbon. This unique combination creates a versatile whiskey that stands out in the crowded bourbon market.
On the nose, it offers a delightful aroma of caramel, vanilla, and oak, with subtle hints of dark fruit and spice. The palate is rich and complex, featuring notes of toffee, baking spices, and a touch of rye pepperiness, balanced by a sweet undertone of honey and dried fruits. The finish is smooth and warming, leaving a pleasant lingering taste.
With an alcohol content of 46%, Smooth Ambler Contradiction is perfect for sipping neat or on the rocks, though it also performs exceptionally well in classic bourbon cocktails like the Old Fashioned or Manhattan. The blend's harmonious flavor profile makes it accessible to both bourbon newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts.
