Lion’s Pride Organic Spelt Single Barrel

Country: USA

Region: Illinois

Type: American Spelt Whiskey

Bottler: Koval Distillery

ABV: 40%

Score: 79 Points

This is a rarity…a whisky produced from 100% organic spelt. The nose is muted citrus, nutmeg, and a hint of ginger. The taste is green apple, nutmeg, and slightly briny with hints of lime and pepper. The finish has a pepper and lime tartness, a touch of brine, and is medium-length. Interesting.
