Sensory Description:

Clear Water Wednesday Whiskey offers a dynamic profile that evolves with each batch. Batch 2 opens with green apple, toasted marshmallow, earthy vanilla, and oak shavings, leading to a palate of vanilla, pumpernickel, applewood, salt, pepper, and gentle hickory smoke. The finish lingers with crème brûlée, cinnamon oat toast, sweet corn, and delicate crepe notes. Batch 3 presents a fresher aromatic frame of mint, frosted corn flakes, toasted oak, and warm autumn air, followed by flavors of vanilla, pink peppercorn, and candied apple. Its finish unfolds with marmalade, toffee, clover, and supple leather. Across batches, the whiskey maintains balance, warmth, and an approachable richness designed for savoring neat or in simple, spirit-forward preparations.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 60 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit in a rocks glass, neat or over a single large cube to appreciate its evolving aromatics.

Pair with smoked nuts, caramel desserts, grilled meats, or enjoy on its own as a well-earned reward at the end of any day.
