Final Thoughts
Originally launched to honor J.P. Wiser himself, Red Letter is a special release that embodies boldness and innovation. The nose is expressive with aromas of butterscotch, orange peel, nutmeg, and charred oak. On the palate, it offers robust flavors of molasses, toasted vanilla, rich rye bread, and a touch of espresso. The finish is long and complex, with smoky oak spice and lingering sweetness. This whisky shines neat in a tulip glass, allowing its layers to unfold slowly. Pairs excellently with smoked salmon, pecan pie, or Cuban cigars.
