About this bottle

Utilizing 100% two-row malted barley, Putnam New England Single Malt was first introduced in December 2017. It represents the inaugural whiskey from Boston Harbor Distillery, which handles its grain-to-glass production. The spirit matures in 53-gallon new American white oak barrels, first toasted then heavily charred, and is bottled at 100 proof.

Parker Metz 3.8

Initially, I detected medicinal notes on the nose, but after some time, it shifted to oak, vanilla, and a touch of butterscotch and caramel. It has a medium length finish with a lingering new charred oak taste in the mouth.

Ryder Vicente 2.0

Full disclosure: I'm not a big fan of Rye. That said, it was less harsh than a typical Rye. Smooth finish.

Hal Healy 5.0

Brewed coffee, cocoa, sugar, and velvety

Talon Wilkinson 4.0

A slight burn, but good flavor.
