Overall
A carefree and well crafted American single malt whiskey that gets it right. Who’d expect an independent bottler finishing whiskey sourced from a small distillery in the middle of Ohio to nail it their first time out? It often comes down to the delicate balancing act with finished American single malts and that’s where Watershed nails it.This whiskey simply comes together admirably, offering a fruit-forward palate that doesn’t venture into sweet territory almost at all, but takes its malted barley base and keeps its sip light and lively. If you’re looking for an American single malt to jump into for the first time, or an experienced malt drinker looking for something new and refreshing, I can’t recommend enough Two Souls Spirits Ohio American Single Malt Apple Brandy Finished Whiskey Featuring Watershed Distillery.
