Quite possibly the most unique American Single Malt.

The story of Copper Fox is a story of passion, love for Whiskey, and mad skills. Rick Wasmund opened the distillery in 2005 in Sperryville, Virginia, after years of meticulous research. All of the barley comes from one farmer and the sort of barley they use was exclusively developed for them by Virginia Tech. What a rad origin story! Then, the grain is smoked and dried with local fruitwoods instead of peat, and – get ready for this – Copper Fox is the only distillery on the planet that matures Whiskey in toasted applewood. You can’t get ritzier than that.

Now, this very bottle contains fine auburn American Single Malt, whose barley was smoked with hand-cut peach wood. Then, the Spirit was put into ex-Bourbon barrels with peach wood and oak chips, plus it was finished in a second used barrel. The result is a flavorful and rich Whiskey that will blow your mind.

Cheers to Copper Fox!

Not My Favorite Cooper Fox

Went to the distillery in Sperryville VA (highly recommended experience). Sampled almost everything they had. Thought I would really enjoy this peach wood one but surprisingly it was my least favorite of the 8 or 10 types I tried. It was more harsh than I expected and no fruity nose or taste that I remember. BTW, many of CF's Whisky are more like a fairly young scotch (no aged heavy mouth feel like with more aged whisky's) but they have very distinct heavy rye and wood noses. They often infuse their barrels with extra wood chips to accelerate and intensify the nose and flavors of their spirits. Unfortunately, I liked this peach one the least. P.s. if you hate the pine sol taste of gin, you should try their gin - it's different.

I was very disappointment righ...

I was very disappointment right from the first sip. It bites too strong and has no smoothness to it. I can't taste any good notes at all because of how rough it is.
