Notes

Ritual zero proof products

My friends at Ritual Zero Proof provided the alternative whiskey and these are the notes from my tasting panel:

  • This is an alternative to a distilled spirit and Ritual recommends substitution on a 1:1 basis
  • The nose is full of vanilla, oak, root beer and a hint of tobacco that is familiar and comforting
  • Flavors of smoke, vanilla and red pepper are prominant on the palate
  • It has long legs consistent with a higher viscosity than distilled whiskey that gives it a big mouthfeel
  • There is a medium peppery, lomg and spicy finish reminiscent of that alcohol “burn”
  • This makes a tasty non-alcoholic Manhattan, worthy of a second cocktail.
