Amador Ten Barrels Straight Hop-Flavored Whiskey

This literally tastes like pan-fried mushrooms and roots. It’s earthy; you don’t really expect such intensity from a flavored whiskey. After earth hops chocolate and root beer I finally taste the whiskey; a nearly absent sensation toward the end. But I guess that’s the point: if they wanted you to taste whiskey they wouldn’t flavor it. Still there are no chemically-imbalanced flavors here. This is worth trying even for us curmudgeon purists.
