Almond, Cherry, and Tennessee Whiskey
Ole Smoky built its name on moonshine in mason jars, then turned the same Appalachian instincts on flavored whiskey — and the amaretto is the crowd-pleaser of the line. Toasted almond is the lead note, with a wash of sweet cherry over a smooth whiskey backbone. It drinks like a liquid almond-cherry confection, light enough to sip chilled yet structured enough for cocktails.

Tasting Notes
Smooth and nutty on the nose with maraschino cherry and toasted almond, then a syrupy sweet-cherry entry over mellow whiskey. The finish is sweet and tangy, cherry and caramel whiskey lingering together.
How to Enjoy
Serve neat or chilled for the full dessert effect, or pour over one big cube. It makes a natural amaretto sour without a bottle of amaretto liqueur, and works in whiskey-cream dessert cocktails. Pair with chocolate cake or vanilla ice cream.
