Smooth Ambler is a really cool, independent distillery that was opened in the hills of West Virginia. The distillery was started and is still run by owner/master distiller, John Little – the man with the big plans.
Knowing that they have their work cut out for them to compete with the vast amounts of storied distilleries in Kentucky, the “little guys” at Smooth Ambler bust their butts day in, day out and every time I visit there, I’m more and more impressed by the quality. Critics have taken notice too as it consistently finds its way onto lists of ‘Top Non-Kentucky Bourbon’.
I tasted 12 barrels with John the last time I was down there & I could have selected 2 or 3 that would be worthy. The one that I walked away with was the best tasting single barrel that I have ever sampled from a small craft distiller. Especially when you consider that this is a full proof bourbon under 50 bucks!! Plus, it has a label so ugly that it’s actually awesome. This is a throw back for sure.

The 2021 Atlas Peak Cabernet is a classic. It’s black in color, with a dynamic nose of cassis, cedar, and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The wine is fabulously concentrated with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging. Ry hit this one out of the park.
Our third single barrel of Whistle Pig and the first time we have our hands on their 6-year PiggyBack bottling. This one leads with a nose of freshly baked pumpernickel bread, butterscotch and toffee. On the palate, I get a lot of citrus & peach with a touch of lavender & black cherry. The finish here is strong & long with spicy dried fruits and caramel notes that linger. This one was distilled in house in Vermont, and as anyone can tell you with the farm releases, they always deliver the best of punches. This one comes in at 109.8 Proof.
95 Points, Jeb Dunnuck – 94 Points, Vinous
The 2005 Château Barde-Haut Saint-Emilion is the one you want. They totally outdid themselves in this vintage and I’d say that without the 95 and 94-point reviews. It’s just a gorgeous wine at an incredible price that over delivers every step of the way. Think black fruits, hints of spice, and an elegant structure that’s singing right now. It’s no wonder this wine is sought after by collectors.
This is the very first 2024 installment of the limited production project from the Bourbon leaders, Booker’s and their iconic master distiller, Freddie Noe. They’re calling this batch ‘Springfield Batch’ as an homage to Booker Noe’s hometown in Kentucky where he was born and raised. This is a little bit of an older age statement than the last few in the series at 7 years, 7 months, and 8 days. It was bottled at 62% alc (124 Proof).
