Wyatt Earp Small Batch is an American single malt whiskey from the World Whiskey Society, crafted from 100% malted barley and bottled at 96 proof (48% ABV), a tribute to the legendary lawman of the Wild West.
The whiskey honours Wyatt Earp's courage and loyalty. It is well balanced, light to medium bodied and exceptionally smooth, a true sipping whiskey. The bottle itself is a work of art, with a silver revolver-cylinder topper and a U.S. Marshal badge.
The nose offers dark chocolate with a dash of citrus, vanilla and malty sweetness, like buttery bread fresh from the oven. The palate layers dark chocolate, fig, white pepper and a spritz of mint, and the finish is oily, with long legs and warming spice that lingers.
With its Wild West story and striking presentation, it is a memorable gift for whiskey collectors.
American whiskey covers a wide range of styles, from bourbon and rye to single malts and light whiskeys, and independent blenders and small producers have made it one of the most exciting categories in spirits.
American single malt whiskey is made from 100% malted barley at a single distillery in the United States, aged in oak casks no larger than 700 litres; the category won official recognition after years of lobbying by American distillers.
Wyatt Earp served as a lawman in Dodge City and Tombstone, and his name became a byword for the frontier West.
At 96 proof, a few drops of water open up the chocolate and fig, while the malted barley gives the whiskey its soft, bready sweetness.
