This Single Malt Whisky has mellow honey notes and flavors of vanilla and cinnamon. These influences from the oak complement the spirit's cereal sweetness with their hints of banana/tropical fruits and slight nutty finish.

Little Rest American Single Malt Whisky is made from 100% New York State grown barley. Although the farmers sometimes must change due to crop rotations, farm scheduling and the weather, we are dedicated to purchasing as much as possible from the Hudson Valley with Ken Migliorelli from Tivoli and the Kukon Brothers in Germantown being two of our favorites.

John Dyson’s Scottish heritage and his lifelong dedication to intelligent, best-in-class farming practices have driven us to make the finest traditional single malt using the best local New York State grains. Little Rest is the only whisky made in the US by a Scottish Master Distiller, Shane Fraser, using low and slow distilling methods. Come and see our Forsyths stills in Wassaic, NY and judge our work for yourself.

Whisky Advocate Review:
A malty nose marries sweet cereal grains with grape jelly, baking spice, passion fruit, and vanilla cream. A dash of cinnamon spice coats the palate, which remains fruit-forward thanks to more grape and cooked cherries. The finish has great length and brings out a beguiling banana bread sweetness that beckons you in for another sip.
