About this bottle

Van Brunt Stillhouse, located in Red Hook, Brooklyn, is named for Cornelius Van Brunt, one of the founding fathers of the neighborhood. The distillery harkens to the days before the Prohibition, when distilleries dotted the Brooklyn waterfront. Made in deference to its Scottish cousin, with 100% malted barley. Aged in new barrels to keep the flavors bright. Sold in 375 ml only.

pmryan 4.3

Color: Sunburnt apricot. Nose: Light, bright fruits--white grapes in particular--with a dusting of sweet cocoa. Palate: Herbal and crisp. A touch of light caramel joins soft tobacco and an earthy petrichor. Finish: A tad spicy for me. But a pleasant note of butterscotch endures. Diluted: Rich honeysuckle and vanilla meet hot buttered popcorn on the nose. Palate continues the increased sweetness, with cake frosting and cinnamon buns really surprising here. The finish is lingering, minty, and warm.

Very light nose. Very spicy, woodsy. Surprisingly rich!
